Context Urology is at the forefront of minimally invasive surgery to a great extent. These
procedures produce additional learning challenges and possess a steep initial learning …

Purpose: Increased awareness of patient safety, advances in surgical technology and
reduced working times have led to the adoption of simulation enhanced training. However …

Background The transforming field of urological surgery continues to demand development
of novel training devices and curricula for its trainees. Contemporary trainees have to …

Simulation has emerged as an effective solution to increasing modern constraints in surgical
training. It is recognized that a larger proportion of surgical complications occur during the …

Objective To review the emerging role of technical and non‐technical simulation in
urological education and training. Method A review was conducted to examine the current …

There has been a major shift from the old paradigm of 'see one, do one, teach one'in
medical training due in large part to resident work-hour restrictions and required oversight in …

Simulation has become widely accepted as a supplementary method of training. Within
urology, the greatest number of procedure-specific models and subsequent validation …

Introduction Over the past few decades, simulation-based training has rapidly been adopted
by many centres for effective technical and non-technical skills training, as a supplementary …

Abstract Purpose of Review Postgraduate medical training has evolved considerably from
an emphasis on hands-on, autonomous learning to a paradigm where simulation …

Objectives To report the study protocol for the first international multicentre randomized
controlled trial investigating the effectiveness of simulation‐based surgical training and the …
