Abstract:
Using the techniques of cognitive task analysis and process mining may allow an increased understanding of both the action and decision components of a surgical procedure. Prior research has demonstrated that these are not intuitive and seemingly small, insignificant elements may have a large impact on success. This increased understanding may allow a more effective transfer of skills by facilitating the transfer of explicit knowledge into tacit knowledge.
