Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| blood loss during hepatectomy | intraoperative | bleeding during transection phase will be calculated in mL. based on the blood in the sucker machine and the surgical towels |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| transection speed | intraoperative | the transection speed will be calculated in minutes based on the relation between the transecition time divided by the surface area of the raw area of the graft measured on the backtable. |
| liver pathology from the cut margin | intraoperative | the area of necrosis will be measured in millimeters by the pathologist |
