Perception of the severity of post-operative complications from all participants: The questionnaire included 30 scenarios with five scenarios for each severity grade according to the Clavien-Dindo classification. The box plots represent the median, interquartile range and 95%-confidence interval for all scenarios rated within each grade of the Clavien-Dindo classification.
