The study objective was to assess the impact of the APDCRS-sponsored course on surgical approaches adopted by young colorectal surgeons before, during, and after fellowship. An internet-based survey was administered to 2014-2022 ACGME-accredited colorectal surgery program graduates. Study variables were summarized using frequencies and proportions. Survey response rate was 43.2%. Laparoscopic and robotic volumes were consistently higher than open and hand-assist laparoscopic volumes over the study period. About 70.0% of fellows performed ≥ 20 laparoscopic cases before 2017, and over 80% had experience with ≥ 20 laparoscopic cases during/after 2017. An increasing trend of performing ≥ 20 robotic colorectal cases during fellowship was observed (before 2017: 75.0%, 2018-2019: 76.9%, and 2021-2022: 84.8%). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that higher robotic volume (≥ 25 colorectal cases) during general surgery residency increased odds of performing ≥ 50 robotic cases during fellowship (OR: 4.38, 95% CI 0.88, 26.1). Higher robotic volumes during fellowship correlated with higher robotic volumes in the first year of post-fellowship practice. 88.6% of respondents agree (21.0%) or strongly agree (67.6%) that the APDCRS robotics training course met expectations, and 83.8% agree or strongly agree that the course prepared them for post-graduate robotics practice. The APDCRS-sponsored robotics training course met expectations and prepared colorectal surgery fellows for adopting the robotic approach after graduation, with the majority of respondents reporting that they utilize robotics in their post-graduation colorectal practice.</p>","PeriodicalId":47616,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Robotic Surgery","volume":"18 1","pages":"365"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11473541/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142477699","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We conducted a systematic literature review and analysis of studies published worldwide from January 2000 to July 2024 concerning the economic evaluation of RARP compared with laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP) or open radical prostatectomy (ORP). A total of 16 papers were included. The literature was generally of good quality. Methodological approaches. varied among studies, leading to inconsistent economic findings. The choice of research settings, including the perspective of the study and time horizon, as well as differences in parameters such as surgical volumes and cost of equipment purchases, were the main factors that affected the cost-effectiveness of RARP. Based on the methodology used in the included studies, we suggest that short-term, localized economic evaluations should be carried out first, based on follow-up studies in emerging markets, whereas long-term economic evaluations can be performed when sufficient data are available. Referring to the analysis of the economic factors influencing cost-effectiveness in the included studies, we suggest that different research settings should be chosen according to the purpose for which policymakers allocate public funds, and that the cost-effectiveness of RARP can be enhanced through technical improvements and resource optimization.</p>","PeriodicalId":47616,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Robotic Surgery","volume":"18 1","pages":"370"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142477682","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A 34-item online survey was distributed to urological residency and fellowship programs across the US, covering demographic profiles, SP training opportunities, perceived educational impact, and future perspectives. Descriptive analysis and multivariable linear regression were used to assess predictors of SP adoption. 201 surveys were completed (28.6% completion rate). Among institutions with an SP platform, about 50% have used it regularly for over 2 years, though often in less than 50% of procedures. While robotic simulators are commonly available, only 17% offer both multi-port and SP simulators, and structured pre-clinical SP training is limited. Approximately 30% of respondents expressed concerns over limited hands-on experience and a steeper learning curve with SP. Around 40% felt that their robotic surgery exposure was negatively impacted by SP's introduction. SP surgery's benefits are seen mostly in the immediate post-operative period and a significant number of respondents foresee a major role for SP in urology. However, proficiency in SP surgery is not seen as crucial for career advancement or job opportunities. Academic job aspirations, SP platform availability, and SP surgery workload are predictors of future SP implementation. Trainees increasingly recognize the clinical benefits of SP procedures but express concerns about the potential negative impact on hands-on experience. Training programs should more systematically integrate SP technology into curricula.
