PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To review the integration of robotics in urology residency programs and evaluate how it has impacted a graduates' level of surgical competence.
Since 2000, robotic-assisted surgery has rapidly expanded into almost every surgical sub-specialty. Despite the popularity of robotic surgery across the United States, a national consensus for standardized training and education of robotic surgeons o...
OBJECTIVE: A national robotic surgery curriculum is still developing for general surgery residents as robotic surgery becomes increasingly accessible. One general surgery residency program utilized a Delphi process to optimize a robotic surgery curri...
The objective of this study was to evaluate the educational impact following the implementation of a robotic thoracic surgery program on cardiothoracic (CT) surgery trainees. We hypothesized that the introduction of a robotic thoracic surgery program...
With increased demands on surgeon productivity and outcomes, residency robotics training increasingly relies on simulations. The objective of this study is to assess the validity and effectiveness of an porcine training model as a useful tool to im...
OBJECTIVE: The use of the da Vinci Robot has been fast growing in general surgery in the United States over the past decade. While the financial cost of robot-assisted procedures has been studied, there has been limited research on the educational co...
