“…Nisar and Scott's survey of trainees and trainers identified WBA completion as a marker for training quality. 11 The same study also identified trainer engagement with the electronic learning platforms as being seen as a particularly desirable trait amongst Core Surgical Trainees. They explain this as a reflection of more inexperienced trainees still requiring legitimisation of their role within the surgical team and that this is provided by the feedback given during assessments.…”

Objective: This study aimed to quality assure Assigned Educational Supervisor (AES) reports, using UK Joint Committee on Surgical Training (JCST) objective criteria, to evaluate contribution Annual Review of Competence Progression (ARCP). Design: Consecutive 145 AES reports from 75 trainers regarding 68 Core Surgical Trainees were assessed from 9 hospitals (2 Tertiary centres (77 reports), 7 District General Hospitals (68 reports)). Reports were assessed by independent assessors based on free text related to performance mapped to curricular objectives, operative logbooks, and Clinical Supervisor (CS) reports, and overall summary grades assigned ranging from development required, adequate, good, to excellent. Setting: A core surgical training programme serving a single UK (Wales) deanery. Participants: Sixty-eight consecutively appointed core surgical trainees and seventy-five consultant surgeon trainers. Results: Summary grades of adequate or above were achieved in 101/145 (69.7%) reports. Trainees' objective setting meetings were completed within 6 weeks of starting placements in 124/145 (85.5%). The proportions of AES reports containing free text commentary on curricular objectives, portfolio objectives, and operative logbook development were 128/145, 123/145, and 55/145 respectively. AES report quality was not associated with hospital status, subspecialty, or trainee grade. Female trainers were significantly more likely to provide reports graded as Good or Excellent compared with their male colleagues (7/12 vs. 27/133,  2 (2) = 9.389, p= 0.009). AES reports for male trainees were significantly more likely to be rated as further development required (40/85, 47.1%) when compared with female trainees (4/32, 12.5%, p=0.007). 3 Conclusion: Three in ten AES reports were insufficient to contribute to objective ARCP outcomes and a gender gap was apparent related to engagement. AES trainers should provide more focus if this summative tool is to be an effective career progression metric.

“…As a consequence, objective assessments must be applied to evaluate procedural competence focusing on the safety of the performance rather than the number of cases completed and distance learning in surgery should not only be confined to observing a video of another surgeon operating, but also incorporate examining the trainees' own performance, by revising the video with peers and trainers. It has been demonstrated that constructive feedback can enhance performance [29], and therefore it must be an essential component of training in robotic surgery, in spite of representing a shift from the more classic methods of surgical training [30]. Commensurate training for new technologies is essential for the safe introduction into the wider surgical community.…”

How to report educational videos in robotic surgery: an international multidisciplinary consensus statement

et al. 2020

The swift endorsement of the robotic surgical platform indicates that it might prevail as the preferred technique for many complex abdominal and pelvic operations. Nonetheless, use of the surgical robotic system introduces further layers of complexity into the operating theatre necessitating new training models. Instructive videos with relevant exposition could be optimal for early training in robotic surgery and the aim of this study was to develop consensus guidelines on how to report a robotic surgery video for educational purposes to achieve high quality educational video outputs that could enhance surgical training. A steering group prepared a Delphi survey of 46 statements, which was distributed and voted on utilising an electronic survey tool. The selection of committee members was designed to include representative surgical trainers worldwide across different specialties, including lower and upper gastrointestinal surgery, general surgery, gynaecology and urology. 36 consensus statements were approved and classified in seven categories: author's information and video introduction, case presentation, demonstration of the surgical procedure, outcomes of the procedure, associated educational content, review of surgical videos quality and use of surgical videos in educational curricula. Consensus guidelines on how to report robotic surgery videos for educational purposes have been elaborated utilising Delphi methodology. We recommend that adherence to the guidelines presented could support advancing the educational quality of video outputs when designed for training.
