Enhancing surgical capacity in the low- to middle-income countries

This structured, mixed-method model effectively improved surgical competencies and system-level capacity in LMICs. Unlike short-term missions, this initiative emphasized continuity, adaptability, and sustainability. It presents a scalable framework for integrating reconstructive urology into global health programs while leveraging AR to overcome geographic and resource limitations.

Abstract

This structured, mixed-method model effectively improved surgical competencies and system-level capacity in LMICs. Unlike short-term missions, this initiative emphasized continuity, adaptability, and sustainability. It presents a scalable framework for integrating reconstructive urology into global health programs while leveraging AR to overcome geographic and resource limitations.
