Development of a robotic training curriculum for visceral and gastrointestinal surgical trainees: an international Delphi study
➡️doi.org/10.1093/bjs/znag054
🤖 International consensus defines the core elements of GI robotic surgery training:
▪️ Knowledge requirements
▪️ Structured curriculum
▪️ Performance assessment
▪️ Certification standards
➡️ Supporting safer and more standardized robotic surgical education worldwide.

📊 Eye-opening data from Mr @MichaelGFadel on robotic #training reality:
🤖 >700 trainee responses reveal the gaps:
• Most have <10 robotic cases experience ‼️
• Training methods vary wildly 😟
• Only 40% have dedicated training lists access ⤵️
Top 5 Training Challenges:
1⃣ Lack of accredited trainers
2⃣ Lack of training lists
3⃣ Failure to progress
4⃣ Competition for training
5⃣ Cost of simulators/courses
Solutions needed: #Curriculum development, #mentorship programmes, #assessment tools.

Through a Collaboration Kickstarter Award, S&C is establishing a community-led #EDI advocacy group made up of diverse patient & public representatives. It will provide an independent forum to establish EDI priorities in cancer and ensure they are reflected in future research.
