Significant improvement of laparoscopic knotting time in medical students through manual training with potential cost savings in laparoscopy - an observational study

摘要

Laparoscopy is a standard procedure in operative gynaecology, but laparoscopic simulator training for novices/junior surgeons is not currently well-established. The aims of this study were to demonstrate that a laparoscopic knot course for trainees can significantly shorten the knotting time and to perform a counter-value calculation for the clinic’s costs.
