The potential effects of artificial intelligence (AI) on the teaching of anatomy are unclear. We explore the hypothetical situation of human body donors being replaced by AI human body simulations and reflect on two separate ethical concerns: first, ...
Pre-operative simulated practice allows trainees to learn robotic surgery outside the operating room without risking patient safety. While simulation practice has shown efficacy, simulators are expensive and frequently inaccessible. Cruff (J Surg Edu...

BACKGROUND: Surgical simulation training enables surgeons to acquire clinical experience or skills from the operating room to the simulation environment. Historically, it has changed with advances in science and technology. Moreover, no previous stud...
INTRODUCTION: With the widespread adoption of minimally invasive surgery, there is a growing need for surgical residents to be trained by a procedure-specific curriculum. This study aimed to evaluate the technical performance and feedback of surgical...
The correlation between driving skills and the ability to perform robotic surgery have not yet been discussed. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the impact of driving skills on learning robotic surgery using a driving simulator and a robotic...
Surgical laparoscopy, endoscopy & percutaneous techniques
Jun 1, 2023
BACKGROUND: We aim to evaluate how new robotic skills are acquired and retained by having participants train and retest using exercises on the robotic platform. We hypothesized that participants with a 3-month break from the robotic platform will hav...
While laparoscopic simulation-based training is a well-established component of general surgery training, no such requirement or standardized curriculum exists for robotic surgery. Furthermore, there is a lack of high-fidelity electrocautery simulati...
Immediate access to the patient in crisis situations, such as cardiac arrest during robotic surgery, can be challenging. We aimed to present a full immersion simulation module to train robotic surgical teams to manage a crisis scenario, enhance teamw...
