This study developed a comprehensive, proficiency-based robotic surgery training program. The curriculum demonstrated early validity and feasibility, improving surgical skills.

Area of Science:

  • Robotics in Surgery
  • Surgical Education
  • Medical Training Technologies

Background:

  • Robotically assisted surgery is increasingly prevalent across surgical fields.
  • Current surgical training methods lack standardization and validation.
  • There is a need for structured, validated training programs in robotic surgery.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a comprehensive, proficiency-based training program for robotic surgery.
  • To establish objective metrics for skill assessment in robotic surgery training.
  • To evaluate the validity and feasibility of the developed curriculum.

Main Methods:

  • Generated a 23-item skill deconstruction list through expert observation and interviews.
  • Developed a curriculum including online tutorials, interactive sessions, and inanimate exercises.

  • Assessed preliminary construct and content validity, and curriculum feasibility.

    • Main Results:

    • The curriculum included 23 skills, an online tutorial, an interactive session, and 9 inanimate exercises with objective metrics.
    • Significant differences in scores between novice and expert groups confirmed construct validity (P < .001).
    • High relevance ratings (4.9/5) and pre- to post-test improvements supported content validity and training effectiveness.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed proficiency-based curriculum effectively covers essential robotic surgery skills.
    • Early validation indicates the program's construct validity, content validity, and feasibility.
    • Further research is recommended to fully validate the robotic surgery training program.
