How to reduce intraoperative preparation and docking time to minimal in a team with a robotic naïve surgical experience?
Conducing a training of patient preparation and docking in the dry laboratory using an insufflated abdominal model facilitates experience acquisition in a safe and calm environment. The training method of Group 2 might help to avoid the potentially longer anesthesia times for patients during the early learning curve of Group 1.
