Area of Science:

  • Surgical innovation
  • Medical education technology

Background:

  • Robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) adoption is growing in surgery, enhancing precision and reducing patient harm.
  • Plastic surgery has lagged in RAS integration, primarily due to insufficient training opportunities.
  • Current RAS applications in plastic surgery include flap procedures and microvascular anastomosis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To define the core components of a robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) curriculum tailored for plastic surgery residents.
  • To review existing training methodologies and assessment strategies for RAS across various surgical disciplines.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of current robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) training programs.
  • Analysis of established assessment tools in surgical subspecialties.
  • Synthesis of essential curriculum elements for plastic surgery RAS education.

Main Results:

  • Identified key modules for a plastic surgery RAS curriculum, covering foundational knowledge and procedural skills.
  • Highlighted the necessity for standardized training pathways to overcome adoption barriers.
  • Examined diverse training models and assessment techniques applicable to robotic surgery education.

Conclusions:

  • A structured, plastic surgery-specific robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) curriculum is crucial for effective integration.
  • Standardized training and assessment will facilitate wider RAS adoption in plastic surgery.
  • Leveraging existing models from other surgical fields can inform plastic surgery RAS education.
