A systematic review of comprehensive Robotic-assisted surgical (RAS) curricula.

ABSTRACT:  Robotic assisted surgery (RAS) is being increasingly used for minimal access surgery. There has been a growing interest in developing curricula for RAS training.

Methods: A systematic review of RAS curricula evidence and teaching was conducted on the platforms Medline, PubMed, Embase, CINAHL and PsycINFO combining robotic surgery with surgical training in February 2024 and updated in June 2025. After removal of duplicates 10,002 references were returned.
