This study explores the difference between resident self-assessment and attending assessment of laparoscopic skills using an objective evaluation tool. Findings show that residents scored themselves lower in all domains compared to attending evaluation, with video review altering attending evaluation in some domains. Future studies will examine the role of debriefing in resident self-assessment after video review.

Disclosure • We have no financial interest to disclose
Introduction • There is a growing need for more structured evaluation of technical skills in surgical training • New requirements by the American Board of Surgery for 2013 • Tools for assessment include • OSATS • GOALS • Self assessment is an essential skill in surgical training.
Hypothesis • Resident self assessment and attending assessment of laparoscopic skills are different when using an objective evaluation tool • Video review of self-performance alters these assessments
Methods GOALS GOALS
Assessment Tool • GOALS • Domains • Depth perception • Bimanual dexterity • Tissue handling • Efficiency • Autonomy • Level of difficulty • Suturing
Results • 8 PGY-3 General Surgery residents were included • Performed 262 procedures • 220 Cases included in data analysis

Conclusion • When compared to attending evaluation, residents scored themselves lower in all domains • This difference persists after video review. • In some domains, video review changed attending evaluation • Resident scores did not change after video review
Conclusion • Future studies will evaluate the role of debriefing in resident self-assessment after video-review
