A systematic review was conducted to identify the available evidence investigating surgeon learning curves in robot‐assisted surgery and concluded that there is insufficient evidence to recommend a specific curve for each procedure.
Abstract
Increased uptake of robotic surgery has led to interest in learning curves for robot‐assisted procedures. Learning curves, however, are often poorly defined. This systematic review was conducted to identify the available evidence investigating surgeon learning curves in robot‐assisted surgery.
