- Description
-
Surgical training has traditionally been based on an apprenticeship model whereby a resident trainee will acquire surgical competencies through accumulated experience and long hours spent observing a more experienced supervising surgeon in the operating room1. However, this method has been criticized for being too subjective, too costly in human resources, time-consuming, and not accurately representing technical skill.1,2 Of note, a study showed that only 34% of surgical trainees report feeling they have sufficient training in basic surgical skills. As a result, there has been significant interest in developing cost-effective methods of objectively assessing technical skill in surgery, both for the purposes of credentialing and for formative feedback
