Simulation Training in Urology: State of the Art and Future Directions.

摘要: There has been a major shift from the old paradigm of 'see one, do teach one' in medical training due large part to resident work-hour restrictions and required oversight operating room. In response this, advancements technology have allowed for introduction more objective measures assess skill competency proficiency surgical trainees. Patient safety trainee well-being are important drivers this new model, so programs adopting simulation into their curriculum. Urology is uniquely positioned at forefront emerging technologies surgery, because field's commitment safe efficient minimally invasive surgery endourological procedures. Due these technically challenging procedures, urological must incorporate educational allow skills assessment, transfer, ultimately providing optimal patient care with production proficient competent
