Abstract

Proficiency based progression training versus the Halsted

Author(s): R. De Groote

Proficiency Based Progression (PBP) training has demonstrated effectiveness in different surgical specialties. The “Venezuelan chicken model” is an optimal training model for robotic suturing, anastomosis and knot tying tasks.

We compared the effectiveness of Halsted’s apprenticeship approach to training with the PBP approach for teaching the robotic suturing of a VUA on a chicken model.
