We explored the feasibility and surgeons' perceptions of the utility of a longitudinal skills performance database.A 10-station surgical skills assessment center was established at a national scientific meeting. Skills assessment volunteers (n = 189) completed a survey including opinions on practicing surgeons' skills evaluation, ethics, and interest in a longitudinal database. A subset (n = 23) participated in a survey-related interview.Nearly all participants reported interest in a longitudinal database and most believed there is an ethical obligation for such assessments to protect the public. Several interviewees specified a critical role for both formal and informal evaluation is to first create a safe and supportive environment.Participants support the construction of longitudinal skills databases that allow information sharing and establishment of professional standards. In a constructive environment, structured peer feedback was deemed acceptable to enhance and diversify surgeon skills. Large scale skills testing is feasible and scientific meetings may be the ideal location. |
