简要总结
The purpose of this study is to improve the investigators understanding of different training methods in laparoscopic colon surgery.
详细描述
In this study the investigators use an objective evaluation system which deconstructs laparoscopic colectomy into its component steps. Critical components of the procedure as well as overall operative performance can be evaluated. This is applied to surgeons and trainee surgeons attending laparoscopic colorectal training courses using different training models to compare each model and correlate outcomes with each model to pre-course experience. This project is aimed at better educating trainers and getting better information on the validity of new training models for laparoscopic colectomy.
Aims of Project
- To observe and assess surgical technique during laparoscopic colorectal skills training courses using a previously validated tool for formal assessment of surgical technical skills.
- To evaluate technical errors and patterns of error during training at laparoscopic colectomy.
- To determine outcomes and error rates with different training models and correlate these with prior surgical experience.
