Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Incidence of Intra-Operative Hemostatic Intervention
Incidence of hemostatic interventions/procedures completed for intra-operative bleeding related to the transection of the Pulmonary Artery and Pulmonary Vein during Video Assisted Thoracoscopic lobectomy with the use of standard of care stapler (SOC) or powered vascular stapler (PVS) defined as bleeding detected and controlled intraoperatively (additional stapling, over-sewing, clip placement, compression, use of suture, sealant, and/or buttress, and/or use of energy); or bleeding that occurs intra-operatively requiring blood or blood product transfusion or an additional surgical procedure (e.g. conversion to open).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Post-operative Interventions or Procedures Related to Pulmonary Artery or Pulmonary Vein Bleeding
Incidence of hemostatic interventions /procedures completed for post-operative bleeding related to the transection of the PA and PV during VATS lobectomy with the use of SOC or PVS: Hemostasis intervention: bleeding that occurs post-operatively requiring blood or blood product transfusion or an additional surgical procedure (related to PA and PV transection). No hemostasis intervention is defined as no interventions needed for post-operative bleeding (related to PA and PV transection).
