Robotics: Basic Surgical Course (Apr 19 - 22, 2021)

Robotics: Basic Surgical Course is organized by AdventHealth Nicholson Center and will be held from Apr 19 - 22, 2021 at AdventHealth Nicholson Center, Celebration, Florida, United States of America.

Target Audience:
This training is available to surgeons, fellows, and residents that are interested in safely transitioning learning into practice and developing competency in robotic surgical skills. 

Accreditation:
AdventHealth Tampa designates this Live Activity for a maximum of 38.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s). Physicians should only claim the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

Description:
The 4-day comprehensive Basic Robotic Training Course utilizes a blended training experience that will focus on:
• Defining robotic surgical platform components, features, setup requirements, and troubleshooting measures.
• Developing the psychomotor skills required to safely operate robotic surgical platforms.
• Demonstrating how robotic surgical platforms are integrated into the operating room setting and how platforms can be best utilized in clinical practice.
• Developing clinical efficiency through comprehensive team training.

During this program, your experience will include; discussions on robotic surgical technology, human factors associated with robotic surgery, surgical skills evaluation tools for robotics, robotic surgical platform training, hands-on simulation, wet & dry lab experiences, and competency development in the skills required to safely operate the Intuitive Surgical daVinci Robot.

The course also includes; developing efficiencies within the healthcare team, extensive evaluation of your robotic skills throughout the course, access to robotic surgical resources to aid in your practice, a comprehensive follow-up evaluation following the course to ensure your making the most out of your training.

Objectives:
• Identify the specific robotic platform components, settings, and features required to safely utilize and operate the robotic surgical platform. 
• Demonstrate the proper robotic platform pre-operative setup, troubleshooting measures, and emergency procedures required to safely operate robotic surgical platforms. 
• Demonstrate competency in the following core robotic psychomotor skills; Endowrist Manipulation, Camera Navigation, Instrument Clutching, 4th Arm Application, Energy Application, Needle Driving, Surgical Knot Tying, and Suturing. 
• Demonstrate competency in the basic skills required for the surgical 1st assistant to include; Camera Navigation, Instrument Insertion, Item Hand-off’s & Transfers, Cutting, Retraction, Suctioning, Irrigating, Energy Application, and Hemoclip Application. 
• Recognize the roles and responsibilities of each robotic surgical team member and competently perform the proper setup of the robotic surgical platform for a surgical procedure.
