Gu J, Cao J, Cao W, Chen Y, Wei F. Optimized reusable modular 3D-printed models of choledochal cyst to simulate laparoscopic and robotic bilioenteric anastomosis. Sci Rep 2024; 14:8807. [PMID: 38627503 PMCID: PMC11021543 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-59351-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2024] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/19/2024] Open
Abstract
Laparoscopic and robotic surgery is a challenge to the surgeon's hand-eye coordination ability, which requires constant practice. Traditional mentor training is gradually shifting to simulation training based on various models. Laparoscopic and robotic bilioenteric anastomosis is an important and difficult operation in hepatobiliary surgery. We constructed and optimized the reusable modular 3D-printed models of choledochal cyst. The aim of this study was to verify the ability of this optimized model to distinguish between surgeons with different levels of proficiency and the benefits of repeated practice. A total of 12 surgeons with different levels participated in the study. Operation completion time and OSATS score were recorded. The model was validated by Likert scale. Surgeons were shown the steps and contents before performing laparoscopic or robotic bilioenteric anastomosis using the model. Surgeons with different levels of experience showed different levels when performing laparoscopic bilioenteric anastomosis on this model. Repeated training can significantly shorten the time of laparoscopic bilioenteric anastomosis and improve the operation scores of surgeons with different levels of experience. At the same time, preliminary results have shown that the performance of surgeons on the domestic robotic platform was basically consistent with their laparoscopic skills. This model may distinguish surgeons with different levels of experience and may improve surgical skills through repeated practice. It is worth noting that in order to draw more reliable conclusions, more subjects should be collected and more experiments should be done in the future.

Endosurgery workshop to improve the confidence of novice pediatric surgeons in performing laparoscopic hepaticojejunostomy. Pediatr Surg Int 2024; 40:45.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study assessed the efficacy of a high-impact, short-term workshop in honing the laparoscopic hepaticojejunostomy technical skills and self-confidence of novice pediatric surgeons, focusing on vertical needle driving and knot tying. METHODS Lectures, hands-on sessions, pre- and post-workshop evaluations, and training using porcine models were conducted to refine basic and advanced skills. The "hepaticojejunostomy simulator" was used for comparative analysis of precision in pre- and post-workshop vertical needle driving and knot tying. Participants self-evaluated their skills and confidence on a 5-point scale. RESULTS After the workshop, eight inexperienced pediatric surgeons demonstrated a significant improvement in hepaticojejunostomy suturing task completion rates and needle-driving precision at the jejunum and hepatic duct. However, the A-Lap Mini Endoscopic Surgery Skill Assessment System indicated no significant improvements in most assessed parameters, except for the full-layer closure score (p = 0.03). However, a significant increase in participants' confidence levels in performing laparoscopic hepaticojejunostomy was observed. CONCLUSION The workshop augmented technical proficiency and confidence in young pediatric surgeons. The combination of lectures, practical exposure, and model training is an effective educational strategy in pediatric surgical instruction.

Asian J Endosc Surg 2024; 17:e13259.

Abstract
PURPOSE We examined the usefulness of positive social networking service (SNS) messages to improve motivation and performance during off-the-job training. METHODS Subjects were sixth-year medical students who completed a 4-week clinical clerkship in our department involving two separate tasks. Time taken to perform the tasks was recorded on Days 1, 14, and 28. All trainees voluntarily practiced the task until Day 14. The trainees were classified into two groups according to the results of their time measurements on Day 14. The slow time group was intervened with SNS messages (SNS group) and the fast time group was not intervened (non SNS group, nSNS). The SNS group received messages from the moderator daily or every other day. The time to complete the skills practiced in the first (Days 1-14) and second half (Days 15-28) were recorded for each group. RESULTS On Day 14, the time for both tasks of the nSNS group was significantly faster than the SNS group. However, there was no significant time difference on Day 28. During Days 15-28, the SNS group had significantly more practice days than the nSNS group (5.3 vs. 3.8 days, p = .023). On questionnaire, all SNS group participants indicated that the messages increased their motivation to practice. CONCLUSIONS SNS messages using smartphones might have increased motivation for task training and improved the performance of tasks in off-the-job training for novice trainees.

Abstract
Background: Endoscopic surgery also has been becoming widespread in the field of pediatric surgery. However, most disease treated by pediatric surgery in a single institution are small number of cases. Besides, the variety of operative procedures that need to be performed in this field is quite wide. For these reasons, pediatric surgeons have limited opportunities to perform endoscopic surgery. Therefore, it is difficult to introduce advanced endoscopic surgery at a single local hospital. To educate pediatric surgeons in local hospitals, for widespread advanced pediatric endoscopic surgery safely, and to eliminate the need for patient centralization, we have introduced a proctoring system. We compared the surgical results of our institution, a center hospital, with other local institutions, to investigate the feasibility of our proctoring system. Methods: The experienced pediatric surgeon of our institution visits local hospitals to provide onsite coaching and supervises pediatric surgeons on the learning curve. All patients who underwent laparoscopic cyst excision and hepaticojejunostomy for choledochal cysts, one of the advanced pediatric endoscopic surgeries was retrospectively reviewed. Results: Thirty-four cases were evaluated (14 cases in our institution, 20 cases in 9 other institutions). The procedures of all 34 cases were performed by surgeons with 0-2 cases of experience in the procedure. There were no open conversion cases. There was no significant difference in the operative date. There was 1 case (6.7%) of postoperative complications during hospitalization at our institution and 3 cases (14.3%) at other institutions (P = .47). Two cases of late complications (13.3%) occurred at our institution, whereas 6 cases (28.6%) occurred at other institutions (P = .28). Conclusion: With the proctoring system, the performance and completion of advanced pediatric endoscopic surgery at local institutions was feasible. This has important implications given the ever-growing demand for pediatric endoscopic surgery and the increasing need for competent pediatric endoscopic surgeons.
