Optimizing outcomes in ear surgery: A dynamic framework for assessing postoperative complications and quality of care
This study introduces a standardised, dynamic approach to the documentation and analysis of otosurgical complications. The CPF provides robust metrics for assessing surgical outcome quality and should be considered a complementary method alongside traditional outcome measures. These findings can help establish mandatory documentation parameters and improve comparability across clinical centres.
