A novel training course effectively teaches thoracoscopic surgery techniques. Participants successfully applied these minimally invasive thoracic surgery skills in clinical practice within a year.

Area of Science:

  • Thoracic Surgery
  • Surgical Education
  • Minimally Invasive Procedures

Context:

  • Thoracoscopic procedures are increasingly common in thoracic surgery.
  • A need exists for structured training programs in thoracoscopic techniques.
  • Current training lacks systematic approaches for skill development.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of a 1-day training course for thoracoscopic procedures.
  • To assess the clinical application of skills learned in the course.
  • To determine if the training translates to successful patient interventions.

Summary:

  • A 1-day training course using anesthetized pigs was developed.
  • Participants practiced various thoracoscopic operations, including lung wedge resection and lymph node dissection.

  • 40% of participants performed over ten clinical thoracoscopic interventions within 7-12 months post-course.

    • Impact:

    • The training course facilitates the successful adoption of thoracoscopic techniques in clinical practice.
    • This program addresses the gap in systematic surgical education for minimally invasive thoracic surgery.
    • The course demonstrates a practical method for improving surgeon proficiency in thoracoscopy.
