|---|---|
| Improvement in operation theatre CMR versius robot set-up is measured using a modified CMR assessment sheet following the completion of either intervention. The overall score will be measured using the sum of 38 tasks using a Likert scale of 1-5 per task: Timepoint 0 hours; Total score /190 | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Robot set-up self-assessed confidence: 1. Individual task scores will be measured using a Likert scale of 1-5 at 0 hours post-assessment: Timepoint 0 2. Time will be measured in minutes from the beginning to the end of the assessment: Timepoint 0 3. Self-assessed confidence scores will be assessed using a Likert scale of 1-5 at 0 hours post assessment | — |
