“…Patient-related predictor variables comprised patient body mass index (BMI), patient pre-operative opioid use, patient smoking status, and patient American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status classification. These patientrelated predictor variables were chosen given that prior work has also assessed their possible contribution to peri-operative and OR time [24][25][26][27]. Patient-related predictor variable data were not available for all cases.…”

Many robotic procedures require active participation by assistants. Most prior work on assistants’ effect on outcomes has been limited in procedural focus and scope, with studies reporting differing results. Knowing how assistant experience affects operating room time could inform operating room case scheduling and provide an impetus for additional assistant training. As such, this retrospective cohort study aimed to determine the association between assistant experience and operating room time for 2291 robotic-assisted operations performed from 2016 to 2022 at our institution. Linear regression showed a significant association between the presence of a junior resident and increased case length differential with an increase of 26.9 min (p = 0.01). There were no significant associations between the presence of a senior resident (p = 0.52), presence of a fellow (p = 0.20), or presence of a physician assistant (p = 0.43) and case length differential. The finding of increased operating room time in the presence of a junior resident during robotic cases supports consideration of the adoption of formal assistant training programs for residents to improve efficiency.
