Identifying barriers to resident robotic console time in a general surgery residency through a targeted needs assessment.

Journal of robotic surgery
Robotic-assisted general surgery is experiencing exponential growth. Despite our institution's high volume, residents often graduate with inadequate console experience. Our aim was to identify the educational needs of residents and perceived barriers...

Survey shows all surgical residents have exposure to robotic surgery yet no formalized curricula exist amongst programs: A Southwest Surgical Congress Survey.

American journal of surgery
BACKGROUND: Increased robotic surgery exposure during general surgery training occurs at many institutions without a formal education curriculum. Our study evaluates the current state of general surgery robotic training within programs represented by...

Implementation of a structured robotic colorectal curriculum for general surgery residents.

Journal of robotic surgery
There is increasing demand for colorectal robotic training for general surgery residents. We implemented a robotic colorectal surgery curriculum expecting that it would increase resident exposure to the robotic platform and would increase the number ...

Cost analysis of training residents in robotic-assisted surgery.

Surgical endoscopy
INTRODUCTION: Use of robotic-assisted surgery is increasing, and resident involvement may lead to higher costs. We investigated whether senior resident involvement in noncomplex robotic cholecystectomy (RC) and inguinal hernia (RIH) would take more t...
