View on ClinicalTrials.gov →
Summary
High noise levels generated by arthroscopic equipment may impair intraoperative communication and increase cognitive workload, potentially affecting surgical efficiency. Active noise-cancelling (ANC) systems combined with closed-loop communication may enhance team interaction; however, their clinical impact remains unclear. Purpose of this study is To evaluate the effect of ANC headphones and a closed-loop communication system on operative time and intraoperative team performance during arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction.
