Contributions of authors

CC contributed to the conception of the review, co‐ordinated the review, wrote to authors of papers for additional information and worked on the data management.

CC and HS together designed and drafted the review, collected data for the review, organised retrieval of papers, screened the retrieved papers, appraised the quality of the papers, extracted the data of the papers, obtained and screened data on unpublished studies, entered data into Review Manager 5, analysed and interpreted the data and wrote the review.

SMR contributed to the conception and designing of the review, helped in providing a methodological perspective, helped with the interpretation of data and critically revised the draft review.

MW and CC together designed search strategies.

MW undertook the searches (in consultation with the Trials Search Co‐ordinator of the Cochrane Gynaecology and Fertility Group, Marian Showell).

FWJ contributed to the conception and design of the review, helped interpreting the data, provided a clinical and consumer perspective and critically reviewed the draft review.

BWM contributed to the conception of the review and critically reviewed the draft review.

All authors approved the final version of the review.

Trocar types in laparoscopy

Protocol

Differences between protocol and review

We used a fixed‐effect model for meta‐analysis of dichotomous data.

We have added three subgroups: primary entry technique, secondary entry technique and differing trocar diameter.

We removed the planned sensitivity analysis where eligibility would be restricted to studies on bariatric surgery.

El uso y la enseñanza del modelo PICO están muy extendidos en el ámbito de la atención sanitaria basada en la evidencia para formular preguntas y estrategias de búsqueda y para caracterizar estudios o metanálisis clínicos. PICO son las siglas en inglés de cuatro posibles componentes de una pregunta de investigación: paciente, población o problema; intervención; comparación; desenlace (outcome).

Para saber más sobre el uso del modelo PICO, puede consultar el Manual Cochrane.

*The basis for the assumed risk is the mean control group risk across studies. The corresponding risk (and its 95% confidence interval) is based on the assumed risk in the comparison group and the relative effect of the intervention (and its 95% CI).
CI: confidence interval; OR: odds ratio.

GRADE Working Group grades of evidence
High quality: Further research is very unlikely to change our confidence in the estimate of effect.
Moderate quality: Further research is likely to have an important impact on our confidence in the estimate of effect and may change the estimate.
Low quality: Further research is very likely to have an important impact on our confidence in the estimate of effect and is likely to change the estimate.
Very low quality: We are very uncertain about the estimate.

1 Downgraded one level due to high risk of attrition bias.
2 Downgraded two levels due to imprecision: the number of events was fewer than 300 (the threshold rule‐of‐thumb value).
3 No events reported.
4 Downgraded one level due to risk of bias: in all included studies, high risk of performance bias, due to differences between groups for fascial closure or other types of port manipulation. Method of assessment mostly unclear.
5 Data could not be pooled because of clinical heterogeneity.
6 All studies provided insufficient statistical data, making it inappropriate to pool the data.

1 No events reported.
2 Downgraded one level due to high risk of selection bias: unclear randomisation and allocation.
3 Downgraded two levels due to imprecision: the number of events was fewer than 300 (the threshold rule‐of‐thumb value).
4 Downgraded one level due to high risk of performance bias: personnel not blinded, unclear type and frequency of port manipulation.
5 Study provided insufficient statistical data, making it inappropriate to calculate adequate measures.
6 Downgraded one level due to risk of bias: attrition bias due lack of clarity on completeness of the outcome data and 'unit of analysis' issues and performance bias due to lack of clarity on degree and frequency of port manipulation.
7 Downgraded one level due to imprecision.
