A New Device for the Assessment of Minimally Invasive Surgical Performance – the Validity of Sequitor.

ObjectiveSeveral methods are currently used in the assessment of surgical performance. The majority depends on repeated expert review of an observed procedure. Sequitor allows identification of skilled motor behaviour using quantitative objective measures to provide additional performance characteristics, which may be advantageous during the acquisition of minimally invasive surgical skills. Description and MethodsA customized, novel… Continue Reading

A Novel Flexible Over-tube for Advanced Endoscopic Intervention Under Stabilized Visualization With Adjustable Tissue Traction

Background: Advanced endoscopic interventions such as endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), full thickness resection, and ultimately NOTES, have yet to be clinically disseminated, mainly due to technical challenges in optimizing endoscopic visualization and tissue traction. A simple over-tube, compatible with current flexible GI endoscopes and instruments, has been newly developed to improve visualization and tissue traction.The… Continue Reading
