Evaluation of the Feasibility of Using Augmented Reality in Laparoscopic Surgery, by a Clinical Study During Gynecological Laparoscopic Surgical Procedures. (ENDORA2)

September 8, 2025 updated by: University Hospital, Clermont-Ferrand
Augmented Reality is a technology that allows surgeons to superimpose virtual images from preoperative imaging onto the endoscopic vision system intraoperatively. The goal of this clinical trial is to demonstrate that the use of augmented reality during laparoscopic gynecological surgery with a dedicated device could provide assistance to the surgeon, in terms of technical comfort and better visualization of the benign tumor to be resected on a mobile organ.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The feasibility of augmented reality will be measure using the SURG-TLX scale
Time Frame: In the intra-operative phase of the study
The feasibility of the technique will be considered satisfactory if the SURG-TLX score given by the surgeon at the end of the procedure is less than or equal to 33.7 (threshold defined by experts).
In the intra-operative phase of the study

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Score of the surgeon's performance in using the augmented reality device
Time Frame: In the intra-operative phase of the study
Measuring the performance-related score when using the augmented reality device by filling in a scale.
In the intra-operative phase of the study
Collection of operative time
Time Frame: In the intra-operative phase of the study
Collection of operating times for the entire surgery, as well as the various times associated with augmented reality device installation.
In the intra-operative phase of the study
Number of device failures during surgery
Time Frame: In the intra-operative phase of the study
Number of device failures during surgery (defined as an abrupt stop of the device during its use)
In the intra-operative phase of the study
Number of failures to start up the software
Time Frame: In the intra-operative phase of the study
Collection of the number of failures to set up the augmented reality device
In the intra-operative phase of the study
Collection of the real direct medical costs of the procedure from an institutional point of view.
Time Frame: From the date of the surgery to the date of the first post-operative visit, usually 1 month after the surgery
