An online feedback system for laparoscopic training during the COVID-19 pandemic: evaluation from the trainer perspective.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

A system to provide feedback for laparoscopic training using an online conferencing system during the COVID-19 pandemic was developed. The purpose of this study is to evaluate this system from the trainer perspective.

Design

A procedural feedback system using an online conferencing system was devised.

Setting

Surgical training was observed using an online conferencing system (Zoom). Feedback was provided while viewing suture videos which are, as a feature of this system, pre-recorded. Feedback was then recorded. Trainer comments were then converted into text, summarized as feedback items, and sorted by suture phase which facilitates reflection. Trainers completed a questionnaire concerning the usability of the online feedback session.
