360-degree feedback tool enhances intraoperative performance evaluation.

An automated 360-degree feedback tool, known as the ‘intraoperative 360′ (i360), proved effective in assessing surgeons’ technical, nontechnical, and teaching skills. Feedback gathered from 960 surveys highlighted strong performance in technical (4.87/5) and nontechnical skills (4.65/5), while teaching skills rated lower (2.92/3). Semi-structured interviews revealed the tool’s perceived value and identified themes such as utility and logistical challenges. This initiative offers actionable insights for improving efficiency, teamwork, and patient safety in surgical settings.
