Objective classification of psychomotor laparoscopic skills of surgeons based on three different approaches

ConclusionsThe three proposed methods demonstrated high performance in the classification of laparoscopic surgeons, according to their level of psychomotor skills. Together with motion analysis and three laparoscopic tasks of the Fundamental Laparoscopic Surgery Program, these classifiers provide a means for objectively classifying surgical competence of the surgeons for existing laparoscopic box trainers.
