Area of Science:

  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Surgical Robotics
  • Colorectal Surgery

Background:

  • Describes the establishment of a robotic colorectal surgery program in an Australian private hospital.
  • Aims to guide other institutions implementing robotic surgery technology.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To detail the training and credentialing processes for robotic colorectal surgery.
  • To present a framework for establishing new robotic surgery programs.

Main Methods:

  • Reviewed available training, including the da Vinci Surgery Training Pathway.
  • Proposed and implemented a 9-point training and credentialing pathway for surgeons.
  • Documented surgeon activities and hospital support structures.

Main Results:

  • 48 robotic colorectal procedures performed between December 2011 and December 2013.
  • Procedures included anterior resections, abdominoperineal resections, rectopexies, proctectomies, and hemicolectomies.
  • Achieved zero conversions and no major or robot-specific complications.

Conclusions:

  • The implemented training and credentialing approach for robotic colorectal surgery was safe and effective.
  • This methodical strategy is applicable to other institutions introducing robotic surgical technology.
