Abstrakt: Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the importance of general and specific surgical skills for hip arthroscopy from the perspective of surgeons in China. Concurrently, we intend to identify the preferred type of simulation that would facilitate competency of surgical trainees in performing arthroscopy and reinforce their preparation for carrying out the actual surgical procedure. Methods: An online survey comprising 42 questions was developed by experts in hip arthroscopy and sent to 3 online communities whose members are arthroscopic surgeons in China. The responses collected were based on a 5-point Likert scale, with an open-ended comment section. Data were analyzed using one-way AVOVA and post hoc Tukey's test. Results: A total of 159 valid responses from 66 junior specialist surgeons, 68 consultant surgeons, and 25 senior consultant surgeons (from 130 institutions in 27 out of 34 provincial administrative districts in China) were collected. Cognitive ability was identified as the overall most important attribute for hip arthroscopic trainees to possess, while skills relevant to the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) were considered as the most important specific skills by the surgeons surveyed. In addition, simulation using cadaveric specimens was considered the most favorable method for surgeons to practice their surgical skills. Conclusion: In designing a training program for hip arthroscopy, it is essential to incorporate features that evaluate cognitive skills. It would be helpful for trainees to specifically practice skills that are often used in the treatment of some very common diseases of the hip joint, such as FAI. Using high-fidelity physical models for simulation to train skills of hip arthroscopy could be an ideal alternative and effective way to overcome problems arising from the lack of accessibility to cadaveric specimens.
