Error rating tool to identify and analyse technical errors and events in laparoscopic surgery

Surgical error analysis is essential for investigating mechanisms of errors, events and adverse outcomes. Furthermore, it provides valuable information for formative feedback and quality control. The aim of the present study was to design and validate a technical error rating tool in laparoscopic surgery.
