Validity of robotic simulation for high-stakes examination: a pilot study

Simulation-based assessment of robotic cardiac surgery skills: An international multicenter, cross-specialty trial

“…Simulation-based training has been increasingly used to train surgeons in preclinical settings 8 and to assess competency. 9 , 10 , 11 Simulation-based training enables skill development outside of the operating room, allowing for feedback and correction of errors in a controlled and safe environment without any risk to patients. 12 In the simulated setting, trainees can practice until they reach a standard level of competency before beginning supervised clinical training.…”
