Registered outcomes5

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPatient SatisfactionThe patient satisfaction survey was administered up to two days after surgery.
Patient satisfaction will be determined by completion of a 12 question satisfaction survey. The responses to each question will be graded on a scale from 1 to 6: 1 being the least satisfied and 6 being the most satisfied. After all answers are graded for one survey, they will be averaged to give an overall survey grade on the 1 to 6 scale per patient. Higher mean scores are associated with higher levels of satisfaction.
SecondarySurgeon SatisfactionThe surgeon satisfaction survey will be administered immediately after the completion of the surgery. .
Surgeon satisfaction will be determined by completion of a 5 question satisfaction survey. The responses to each question will be graded on a scale from 1 to 6: 1 being the least satisfied and 6 being the most satisfied. After all answers are graded for one survey, they will be averaged to give an overall survey grade on the 1 to 6 scale per surgeon Higher mean scores are associated with higher levels of satisfaction.
SecondaryAnesthesiologist/Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) SatisfactionThe anesthesiologist/CRNA satisfaction survey will be administered immediately after the completion of the surgical case.
Anesthesiologist/CRNA satisfaction will be determined by completion of a 5 question satisfaction survey. The responses to each question will be graded on a scale from 1 to 6: 1 being the least satisfied and 6 being the most satisfied. After all answers are graded for one survey, they will be averaged to give an overall survey grade on the 1 to 6 scale per anesthesiologist/CRNA. Higher mean scores are associated with higher levels of satisfaction.
OtherNumber of Participants Requiring Additional Anesthesia InterventionInformation regarding additional anesthesia intervention will be collected within 2 days of completion of the subjects surgical procedure.The number of subjects in each arm that received additional anesthetic agents during the operative procedure after the initial sedation.
OtherSurgical Complication RatesInformation regarding surgical complications will be collected within 2 days of completion of the subjects surgical procedure.The number of subjects in each arm that experienced a complication during the operative procedure after the initial sedation.
