ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS:
The objective of this video was to demonstrate the build and use of a single robotic simulation model for a double-layer vaginal cuff closure and sacrocolpopexy vaginal mesh attachment. Simulation models are frequently used to improve surgical skills and augment operating room experience for surgical trainees.METHODS:
To create our robotic simulation model, we utilized the Advincula arch manipulator handle with a sacrocolpopexy tip attached to the ALLY Uterine Positioning System. To simulate the vagina, we used a pink, slim can cooler/coozie attached to the sacrocolpopexy tip. The edges of the coozie represented the vaginal cuff following a hysterectomy. Mesh attachment was demonstrated using a precut Y-shaped polypropylene mesh.CONCLUSIONS:
Simulation has become a critical part of education in surgical training programs as it enhances learner knowledge and improves surgical confidence and preparedness in the operative setting.Palavras-chave
