Articulating Enseal Versus Ligasure Energy Devices

This is an exploratory study to assess the ability of the raw-TLX (raw Task Load Index) ergonomic assessment tool to detect differences in surgeon workload when using commercially available advanced bipolar devices. It is anticipated that the raw-TLX version of the validated NASA-TLX ergonomic assessment tool will detect less surgeon effort required in the procedure when articulating ENSEAL is utilized. The Articulating ENSEAL device may also positively impact other variables such as blood loss, operative time and cost.
