“…This technique has been used to validate instruments and video scripts ( 3 , 11 , 16 ) . It is a method to collect opinions and criteria from a group of experts on a given topic by successively applying questionnaires, while information from previous phases is used in each phase to reach consensus among the participants ( 17 ) . Comments from one round are collected, analyzed, and integrated into the next round to collect opinions from the experts.…”

Objective: develop and validate a video on bed bathing directed to nursing professionals and students. Method: the video was based on the literature and presents the definition of bed bath, indications for its performance, steps to perform it, and potential complications. Nursing professors and nurses validated it. They assessed the pertinence of content, clarity, and language of the video scenes. The Delphi Technique was used in this phase. After recording, three nursing professors, along with undergraduate nursing students from a public university, assessed the educational video. The professors first watched the video and suggested changes, and then the students watched the video after the changes were implemented. Results: six rounds were needed for experts to validate the video script using the Delphi Technique. After the video recording, undergraduate students considered the video of easy understanding. Conclusion: the video script was composed of four topics and was validated by experts after six rounds. The video was assessed by the professors and nursing undergraduate students, who considered the topics and the video as a whole as apprehensible. This study is expected to contribute to professional training and improvement of the knowledge and skills of nursing students.

“…46 On the other hand, as robotic thoracic surgery is increasingly adopted, awareness of the risks inherent in this complex new technology has grown, and a group of European thoracic surgeons recently proposed a standardized training curriculum for young doctors. 47 Although robotic and other innovative surgical approaches such as uniportal or subxiphoid VATS are receiving more attention, their additional functional benefit is questionable, as traditional VATS incisions cause loss of only 5% of pulmonary function. 30 Although these procedures are shown to be safe and feasible, their cost-effectiveness remains to be shown.…”

2018 was a banner year for all thoracic oncology, but especially for early-stage NSCLC. Three seminal events occurred in the approximately 18 months from mid-2017 to the end of 2018: in June 2017 at the American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting a small, relatively unheralded study from Max Diehn's group at Stanford University reported on the use of a novel "cancer personalized profiling by deep sequencing" circulating tumor-DNA technology to identify minimal residual disease in patients after curative-intent radiation or surgery for NSCLC; in April 2018 at the American Association for Cancer Research Annual Meeting, Drew Pardoll presented a small pilot study of 21 patients who had received two doses of preoperative nivolumab; in September 2018, at the 19th World Conference on Lung Cancer, Harry J. De Koning presented the long-awaited results of the Dutch-Belgian Lung Cancer Screening Trial (NELSON). These three seminal studies, along with others which are reviewed in this paper, promise to accelerate our progress towards a world in which lung cancer is identified early, more patients undergo curative-intent treatment that achieves the promised cure, and those at risk for failure after treatment are identified early, when the cancer remains most vulnerable. The day is around the corner when lung cancer is defanged and no longer the worldwide terror it currently is. We herein present an overview of the most recent body of work that moves us inexorably towards that day.

“…Followed by a specialist attachment, such as a 'fellowship' at a high volume centre of expertise, with modular training, progressing to full procedure training and final assessment [13]. There is increasing awareness of the importance and benefits of standardised robotic surgery training and multiple specialist curricula have recently been developed by international panels of experts [18]. We are also seeing publications on guidance for procedural training [19].…”

Introduction As the role of robot-assisted surgery continues to expand, development of standardised and validated training programmes is becoming increasingly important. We aim to compare current robotic training curricula with training in aviation, to evaluate current similarities and to provide insight into how healthcare can further learn from replicating initiatives in aviation training. Methods A systematic literature review of the current evidence was conducted online and relevant publications and information were identified. Evaluation and comparison between training in robotic surgery and the aviation industry was performed. Results There are significant similarities between modern robotic training curricula and pilot training. Both undergo basic training before proceeding to advanced training. Aviation training methods include classroom instruction, e-learning and practical training, in both the aircraft and flight simulation training devices. Both surgeon and pilot training include technical and procedural instruction as well as training in non-technical skills such as crisis management, decision making, leadership and communication. However, there is more regulation in aviation, with international standards for training curricula, simulation devices and instructors/trainers that are legally binding. Continuous learning with re-qualification with benchmarked high stakes tests are also mandatory throughout a pilot's and instructor's career. Conclusion Robotic surgeons and pilots roles have many fundamental similarities. Both work with expensive and complex technology requiring high levels of skills, within working environments with high physiological and psychological stress levels. Whilst many initiatives in aviation training have already been replicated in surgical training there remain considerable differences in regulation. Adopting established and proven aviation methods of assessment and regulation could help robotic surgical training become more efficient, more effective and ultimately safer.
