Registered outcomes 3
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Change in Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Score for Musculoskeletal Strain | From the start of each operation to the end of the surgical procedure, with assessments every 5 minutes | Difference in participant-reported musculoskeletal strain during microscopic tympanomastoid surgery performed with and without the exoskeleton. Strain will be assessed using a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) at 5-minute intervals throughout each operation. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Primary | Difference in Surface Electromyography (sEMG) Amplitude (% Change From Rest) | From the start of each operation to the end of the surgical procedure. | Difference in muscle activity, measured using surface electromyography (sEMG), during microscopic tympanomastoid surgery performed with and without the exoskeleton. Results will be expressed as percentage change from resting sEMG amplitude in the neck, shoulder and back muscles. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Primary | Difference in Maximum Surface Electromyography (sEMG) Amplitude | From the start of each operation to the end of the surgical procedure. | Difference in maximum muscle activity, measured using surface electromyography (sEMG), during microscopic tympanomastoid surgery performed with and without the exoskeleton. Maximum sEMG amplitude will be assessed in the neck, shoulder and back muscles | ClinicalTrials.gov |
