Impact of Behavioral Compliance Between Residents and Surgeons (CONF1)

Impact of Behavioral Compliance Between Residents and Surgeons Using a Simulation Environment of Trocar Placement in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

This study aims to evaluate the influence of perceived peer performance on the clinical skill of trocar placement during laparoscopic cholecystectomy among surgeons and surgical residents. It investigates whether exposure to incorrect trocar placements by peers affects the accuracy of subsequent placements.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Control
Participants use a laparoscopic model without any previous marks.
Participants in the experimental group will perform trocar placements on laparoscopic models that have been pre-marked with incorrect insertion sites by previous participants. These marks simulate procedural steps or anatomical landmarks that are intentionally incorrect.
Experimental: Intervention
Participants use a laparoscopic model with incorrect trocar placement marks.
Participants in the experimental group will perform trocar placements on laparoscopic models that have been pre-marked with incorrect insertion sites by previous participants. These marks simulate procedural steps or anatomical landmarks that are intentionally incorrect.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
accuracy of the trocar placements
Time Frame: 1 week

The participant must define in a graphic format the site where the trocars would be placed to perform a laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

The number of trocars correctly placed will be recorded. A rate of will be calculated: Trocars in the correct place/Total number of trocars.
