New Robotic Surgery Curriculum Sets Standards for Trainees

A structured curriculum for robotic surgery training addresses gaps and enhances surgeon competency.

  • Focuses on vendor-neutral, multi-specialty training over three years.
  • Incorporates VR simulation and hands-on experience with hydrogel and animal models.

This framework includes essential non-technical skills like communication and emergency preparedness.

  • Trainees receive a certificate upon successful completion of knowledge and skills assessments.
