Abstract

BACKGROUND: The Global Evaluative Assessment of Robotic Skills is a popular but ultimately subjective assessment tool in robotic-assisted surgery. An alternative approach is to record system or console events or calculate instrument kinematics to derive objective performance indicators. The aim of this study was to compare these 2 approaches and correlate the Global Evaluative Assessment of Robotic Skills with different types of objective performance indicators during robotic-assisted lobectomy.
