Abstract

The use of a robotic surgical platform has become common place in thoracic surgery programs throughout the United States. Formal training paradigms need to be reevaluated to allow for effective and efficient training of thoracic surgery residents and fellows. The utilization of video-based coaching and simulation are effective adjuncts in robotics training.
