Objective: As trainees rotate through thoracic subspecialties within their curricula, a crucial portion of their robotic training consists of actual console operating time. The more time spent on the surgeon console, the greater the development will be through the course of their training. Implementing a physician assistant at the bedside may increase the operative console time for the trainee and develop robotic skills in a more expeditious rate. The objective was to evaluate the impact a designated robotic physician assistant can have on trainee console learning opportunity. Methods: Operating room data collected consisted of all robotic general thoracic surgical cases that trainees participated in with and without a physician assistant present. Metrics regarding case efficiency included anesthesia ready-to-incision, incision-to-console, and raw resident console times. By using PRISM software, a nonparametric t test was used to analyze each averaged data group compared between when a physician assistant was present and not present. Results: The mean resident console time without and with a physician assistant assist was 45.8 minutes and 80.9 minutes, respectively (P |
