CVS-Notifier SaMD: The CVS-Notifier SaMD reminds surgeons to time-out to check the CVS before the division of the cystic duct.
Study summary
The Critical View of Safety (CVS) is universally recommended to prevent bile duct injuries in laparoscopic cholecystectomy. However, CVS is underutilized and bile duct injuries are not decreasing. The CVS-Notifier SaMD (Software as a Medical Device) reminds surgeons to verify the CVS before dividing the cystic duct, as recommended by guidelines. It is hypothesized that this systematic and timely reminder could improve the implementation of CVS without disturbing surgical workflows.
