Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Accuracy of pointing functionality: quantitative assessment of the target registration error (TRE). | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| • Clinical accuracy: qualitative assessment of the appropriateness of navigation accuracy for the indication; • Suctioning capability: o Qualitative assessment of the appropriateness of suctioning capability for the indication; o Quantitative assessment of suctioning capability (count the number of times the Disposable Pre-calibrated Suction needed to be changed to a conventional suction); o Qualitative assessment of the capability of the Disposable Pre-calibrated Suction to stop when intended; • Safety parameters: o Qualitative assessment of the line of sight issues; o Quantitative assessment of complication rate and adverse events (count the number of complications and adverse events); o Quantitative assessment of workflow adaptions needed; Quantitative assessment of pointing/navigation accuracy (count the number of switches to a conventional navigation pointer). | — |
