Evaluating the evaluators: does C-SATS measure up?
C-SATS-derived GEARS scores correlated to overall surgeon historical case volume for RA cholecystectomy and IHR, but not among novice performers. This methodology was unable to differentiate between novice and expert performers for these procedures. There remains a need for high-fidelity and discerning robotic skills evaluation platforms for trainees and novice surgeons.
