Résumé
An understanding of the impact of operative difficulty on operative process in laparoscopic cholecystectomy is lacking. The aim of the present study was to prospectively analyse digitally recorded laparoscopic cholecystectomy to assess the impact of operative technical difficulty on operative process. Video of laparoscopic cholecystectomy procedures performed at Christchurch Hospital, NZ and North Shore Private Hospital, Sydney Australia were prospectively recorded. Using a framework derived from a previously published standard process video was annotated using a standardized template and stratified by operative grade to evaluate the impact of grade on operative process. 317 patients had their laparoscopic cholecystectomy operations prospectively recorded. Seventy one percent of these videos (n = 225) were annotated. Single ICC of operative grade was 0.760 (0.663-0.842 p < 0.010). Median operative time, rate of operative errors significantly increased and rate of CVS decreased with increasing operative grade. Significant differences in operative anatomy, operative process and instrumentation were seen with increasing grade. Operative technical difficulty is accurately predicted by operative grade and this impacts on operative process with significant implications for both surgeons and patients. Consequently operative grade should be documented routinely as part of a culture of safe laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

BACKGROUND
An understanding of the impact of operative difficulty on operative process in laparoscopic cholecystectomy is lacking. The aim of the present study was to prospectively analyse digitally recorded laparoscopic cholecystectomy to assess the impact of operative technical difficulty on operative process.
METHODS
Video of laparoscopic cholecystectomy procedures performed at Christchurch Hospital, NZ and North Shore Private Hospital, Sydney Australia were prospectively recorded. Using a framework derived from a previously published standard process video was annotated using a standardized template and stratified by operative grade to evaluate the impact of grade on operative process.
RESULTS
317 patients had their laparoscopic cholecystectomy operations prospectively recorded. Seventy one percent of these videos (n = 225) were annotated. Single ICC of operative grade was 0.760 (0.663-0.842 p < 0.010). Median operative time, rate of operative errors significantly increased and rate of CVS decreased with increasing operative grade. Significant differences in operative anatomy, operative process and instrumentation were seen with increasing grade.
CONCLUSION
Operative technical difficulty is accurately predicted by operative grade and this impacts on operative process with significant implications for both surgeons and patients. Consequently operative grade should be documented routinely as part of a culture of safe laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
