About this study

At first, the authors evaluated the accuracy of the traditional, manually completed paper-based documentation, which sets a benchmark for the accuracy that the electronic documentation and database provides.

At the second portion, the investigators used the paper-based documentation as a standard to compare the electronic documentation. The incidence of artifact was double checked by two investigators.

At the third portion, the authors calculated the artifact incidence in the AIMS database, using paper based and electric document anesthesia records as the standard respectively.

Treatment and study plan

paper-based anesthesia record

Other

to evaluate the incidence of artifacts in the AIMS database by paper-based anesthesia record

electronic documents

Other

to evaluate the incidence of artifacts in the AIMS database by electronic documents anesthesia record

Primary outcomes

  1. percentage of artifacts

    Time frame: intraoperative (from the beginning to the end of anesthesia record)

    to evaluate how many percentage of artifacts for each of the included parameters

Secondary outcomes

  1. deviating values

    Time frame: intraoperative (from the beginning to the end of anesthesia record)

    to calculate the number of values deviating from the predefined baseline value

  2. percentage of devotional artifacts

    Time frame: intraoperative (from the beginning to the end of anesthesia record)

    to evaluate how many percentage of the deviations are artifacts

  3. episodes of artifacts

    Time frame: intraoperative (from the beginning to the end of anesthesia record)

    to find out the average of number of episodes across each artifact

  4. causes of artifacts

    Time frame: intraoperative (from the beginning to the end of anesthesia record)

    to find out the cause of the artifact and respective percentage
