Short term postoperative morbidity assessed by the Post Operative Morbidity Scale (POMS) with Clavien-Dindo severity grading.
POMS is an 18-item tool that addresses nine domains of morbidity relevant to the post-surgical patient . The severity in each POMS domain will then be graded according to the Clavien-Dindo Classification on the basis of treatment applied to correct each respective complication , and captures complications within 5 grades.

The EQ-5D-5L is a standardised instrument for use as a measure of health outcome and is applicable to a wide range of health conditions and treatments. This five item scale covers the following dimensions (5D): mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression, with each dimension having five levels (5L). The use of the EQ-5D-5L will enable utility valuations to be estimated for health states experienced.
