Key result
Artificial intelligence presents enormous potential for advancing surgical education through technique analysis and structured feedback, improving operating room efficiency and patient care.
Why the study?
Surgery requires repetition for mastery, and decreased exposure during the pandemic highlighted the need to explore artificial intelligence for resident education, operating room efficiency, and patient safety.
AI presents significant potential for advancing surgical education through technique analysis and structured feedback.
May support AI tools for surgical training feedback; leaves open need for prospective validation trials.
The technology of artificial intelligence (AI) has made significant in-roads into the field of medicine over the last decade. With surgery being a discipline where repetition is the key to mastery, the scope of AI presents enormous potential for resident education through the analysis of technique and delivery of structured feedback for performance improvement. In an era marred by a raging pandemic that has decreased exposure and opportunity, AI offers an attractive solution towards improving operating room efficiency, safe patient care in the hands of supervised residents and can ultimately culminate in reduced health care costs. Through this article, we elucidate the current adoption of the artificial intelligence technology and its prospects for advancing surgical education.
