Here, we present user-evaluation data from a regulated, prospective, multispecialty study of a new insufflator (EVA-15, Palliare, Galway, Ireland) which provides high-frequency pressure-sensing, built-in smoke evacuation with pedal activation and highly responsive, high-flow gas provision. Methods: With institutional ethics and regulatory body approval, a non-randomised, prospective clinical investigation was performed on 30 subjects undergoing laparoscopic surgery using an EVA-15 device. Cases were selected from a variety of specialties on a near-consecutive basis without specific exclusion criteria. Users (both surgeons and operating room nurses) completed a survey at case completion to capture ordinal categorical data on a 5-point Likert agreement scale (1 \u2013 Strongly disagree to 5 \u2013 Strongly agree) concerning (i) Settings and Setup Evaluations, (ii) Alarms and Displays Evaluations, (iii) Short Instruction Guide, and (iv) Insufflator Performance along with any additional feedback.  Results: Operations on 30 patients (mean age 54 y, 15 males) were studied with a questionnaire completed by operating room teams after individual consent. The procedures included general (n=13), upper (n=3) and lower (n=6) gastrointestinal surgery, bariatric (n=3), hepatobiliary (n=2) urology (n=2, both robotic prostatectomy) and gynaecology (n=1) operations. In all cases, the laparoscopic component was completed capably with the use of the EVA-15 device. The insufflator evaluation score across all categories was a median of 4, demonstrating satisfactory use and performance in all regards.  Conclusion: The EVA-15 is a smart insufflator system that is capable of satisfactory performance across a spectrum of cases among different specialties.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.52198\/22.sti.40.gs1532","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,10]],"date-time":"2022-02-10T13:45:17Z","timestamp":1644500717000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["User Evaluation of a Novel Smart  Insufflator for Laparoscopic  Surgery-The EVA-15"],"prefix":"10.52198","volume":"40","author":[{"name":"UCD Centre for Precision Surgery, University College Dublin, Ireland","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Niall","family":"McInerney","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mohammad","family":"Khan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"name":"Department of Surgery, Mater Misericordiae University Hospital, Dublin, Ireland","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kiaran","family":"O\u2019Malley","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"name":"Department of Surgery, Mater Misericordiae University Hospital, Dublin, Ireland","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Orla","family":"McCormack","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"name":"Department of Surgery, Mater Misericordiae University Hospital, Dublin, Ireland","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tom","family":"Walsh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"name":"Department of Surgery, Mater Misericordiae University Hospital, Dublin, Ireland","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"John","family":"Conneely","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"name":"Department of Surgery, Mater Misericordiae University Hospital, Dublin, Ireland","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ronan","family":"Cahill","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"name":"UCD Centre for Precision Surgery, University College Dublin, Ireland","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"18996","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,2]]},"container-title":["Surgical Technology Online"],"original-title":[],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,10]],"date-time":"2022-02-10T13:45:22Z","timestamp":1644500722000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/surgicaltechnology.com\/40-General-Surgery.htm#1533"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,2]]},"references-count":0,"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.52198\/22.sti.40.gs1532","relation":{},"ISSN":["1090-3941","1090-3941"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"1090-3941"},{"type":"electronic","value":"1090-3941"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,2]]}}}
