Researchers developed and tested an 8-item procedure-specific assessment tool for minimally invasive inguinal hernia repair, showing good to excellent inter-rater reliability. Robotic procedures had higher reliability, and easier cases had higher agreement levels. The tool was designed and evaluated with expert input and real-world operative videos, with promising results for safety assessments in surgical training programs.
