What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Incidence of Intraoperative Hemostatic Intervention
Time Frame: During Procedure
  • Adult Thoracic: incidence of intraoperative hemostatic intervention related to the transection of pulmonary arteries and veins.
  • Adult Abdominal: incidence of intraoperative hemostatic intervention related to the transection of renal arteries and veins.
  • Pediatric Abdominal: incidence of intraoperative hemostatic and leak intervention related to the transection of the appendiceal stump and mesoappendix (simple acute appendicitis).
During Procedure

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Incidence of Repeat Hospital Admission for Primary Procedure-related Complications
Time Frame: 30 days
30 days
Intraoperative Assessments: Assessment of Staple Line Integrity Using a Five-point Likert Scale
Time Frame: During Procedure
The Likert Scale assessment is a bleeding assessment that was conducted during the procedure, ranging from 1 (no bleeding) to 5 (significant bleeding requiring intervention). Staple line integrity was considered achieved for firings with a Likert Scale Score of 1, 2, 3 and 777 (not recorded at time of procedure, but deemed acceptable by the procedure surgeon).
During Procedure
Intraoperative Assessments: Incidence of Staple Line Bleeding
Time Frame: During Procedure
Number of firings that had an incidence of staple line bleeding of >50cc
During Procedure
Intraoperative Assessments: Additional Intervention(s) to Treat Staple Line Failure
Time Frame: During Procedure
Additional interoperative interventions to treat staple line failure (applying additional stapler reloads, applying compression greater than what is considered typical, over-sewing with suture, placing clips, use of energy, use of seatbelt, other)
During Procedure
Post-operative Assessments: Additional Intervention(s) to Treat Staple-line Failure
Time Frame: 30 days
Additional postoperative interventions to treat staple line failure (Applying additional stapler reloads, Applying compression greater than what is considered typical, Over-sewing with suture, Placing clips, Use of energy, Use of seatbelt, Other)
30 days
Device Deficiencies
Time Frame: 30-days
incidence of subjects reporting device deficiencies affecting the intended performance of the device up to and including 30 days following the use of device (i.e. Signia™ Small Diameter Reloads) in surgery
30-days
