Suturing efficiency during hiatal repair for laparoscopic fundoplication

Background:  An increasingly important part of general surgical training is the development of skills in advanced laparoscopic surgery. However, this aspect of laparoscopy is not always well taught, and there is scope for improving both training and the assessment of performance. Recently, the improved affordability and accessibility of digital video technology and supporting computer systems has enabled critical analysis of operative techniques in laparoscopic surgery to be carried out inexpensively. The aim of the present project was to develop a method for the objective analysis of a laparoscopic suturing task in the real clinical environment, so that surgeon‐in‐training performance could be objectively evaluated.
