This study shows that tutorial teaching effectively trains postgraduate surgeons in basic laparoscopic surgery principles. The method improved instrument understanding, equipment mastery, and problem-solving skills.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Surgical Training
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

  • General surgery programs increasingly incorporate laparoscopic surgery.
  • Effective training methods are crucial for developing foundational skills in young surgeons.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of a tutorial teaching method for basic laparoscopic surgery training.
  • To assess postgraduate surgeons' understanding and practical skills after the course.

Main Methods:

  • A teaching course using tutorial sessions and problem-based learning for 21 postgraduate surgical residents.
  • Group work focused on checklist development, problem discussion, and practice with laparoscopic simulators.

Main Results:
