Representation of the decrease of intervention time in minutes (Y-axis) over the cases performed over time. The X-axis represents the five groups of patients with group A containing the first ten cases, group B the cases 11 to 20, group C the cases 21 to 30, group D the cases 31 to 40 and group E the cases 41 to 56.
