Summary

Authors propose that simulation-based curricula may be a useful adjunct to residency training, whereas warm-up and surgical coaching may allow for maintenance of skill throughout a surgeon’s career. These experiences may represent a strategy for maintaining quality and value particularly in a lower volume surgical setting.
