Background There is a need to standardize training in robotic surgery, including objective
assessment for accreditation. This systematic review aimed to identify objective tools for …

A crucial element of any surgical training program is the ability to provide procedure-specific,
objective, and reliable measures of performance. During robotic surgery, objective clinically …

Background Anastomotic suturing is the Achilles heel of pancreatic surgery. Especially in
laparoscopic and robotically assisted surgery, the pancreatic anastomosis should first be …

The field of robotic-assisted surgery is expanding rapidly; therefore, future robotic surgeons
will need to be trained in an organized manner. Here, we aimed to examine surgeon …

Background The rapid adoption of robotic surgical systems across Europe has led to a
critical gap in training and credentialing for gastrointestinal (GI) surgeons. Currently, there is …

Background Initial learning curves are potentially shorter in robotic-assisted surgery (RAS)
than in conventional laparoscopic surgery (LS). There is little evidence to support this claim …

Methods: A fused deposition modeling 3D printing and an assembled lab model were built
to test LIIA. Fifteen surgeons were required to perform LIIA, and their operation score and …

Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) printed surgical models provide an excellent surgical
training option to closely mimic real operations to teach medical students who currently rely …

Robotic surgery has been utilized increasingly, including in colorectal surgery. Newer
robotic platforms are coming onto the market, and more emphasis is being placed on the …

OBJECTIVE Video-based performance assessments provide essential feedback to surgical
residents, but in-person and remote video-based assessment by trained proctors incurs …
