Discrimination, reliability, sensitivity, and specificity of robotic surgical proficiency assessment with global evaluative assessment of robotic skills and binary scoring metrics : results from a randomized controlled trial Universiteit Gent KU Leuven
Objective: To compare binary metrics and Global Evaluative Assessment of Robotic Skills (GEARS) evaluations of training outcome assessments for reliability, sensitivity, and specificity. Background: GEARS–Likert-scale skills assessment are a widely accepted tool for robotic surgical training outcome evaluations. Proficiency-based progression (PBP) training is another methodology but uses binary performance metrics for evaluations. Methods: In a ...
