Evaluation of Clinical Outcomes of Ponto Procedures Performed in Settings Outside the Main Operating Room (i.e. Out-of-OR)

To make an assessment of how procedure rooms that are used for Ponto out-of-OR surgeries look like. Will be measured using the 'Procedure room used for Out-of-OR Ponto-surgery questionnaire'

With this outcome, the aim is to assess the surgical variables present during Ponto out-of-OR surgeries. A series of yes or no questions will be presented in a form to the surgeon regarding the use of anesthesia, sedatives, implants, and abutments of different lengths. The results will be presented in a table.

Score is reported on a scale of 5 steps, were the lowest value (1) is the worst and the highest value is the best (5)

All postoperative events and complications will be presented in a descriptive table, listing how many were affected by each type of event or complication.

Implant survival will be assessed at least once, at 3 months. If follow-up data is available, implant survival will be assessed through study completion, an average of 1 year.

Will be assessed using the standardised questionnaire International Outcome Inventory for Hearing Aids (IOI-HA) score at 3 months post-surgery. In the questionnaire, each item has five response choices proceeding from the worst outcome to the best outcome (1-5). The score will be presented as mean score with, standard deviation and median for the two groups.

Glasgow Benefit Inventory (GBI) benefit scores will be presented for total-, general-, social- and physical scores at 3 months post-surgery. The GBI uses a scale from -100 to +100, where scores above 0 indicate improved quality of life.
