EDUCATION
Laparoscopic surgical training
Laparoscopic technique is learned in stages: instrument handling and depth perception first, then energy device behaviour in tissue, then the full procedure. Structured training separates those stages so surgeons are not learning all three at once in a live case.
Why structured skills practice matters
Working through ports removes tactile feedback and flattens the visual field. Skills such as two-handed suturing, controlled dissection and safe energy application are all significantly slower to acquire in theatre than at a bench station, where a movement can be repeated dozens of times without patient risk.
​
Device-specific behaviour is just as important as generic skill. Ultrasonic dissection, for example, behaves differently across tissue planes, and understanding the effect of sonotrode selection and irrigation before a first case shortens the learning curve considerably.
How MediGroup EBI supports training
We run and support device workshops that combine interactive presentation, dry-station testing and, where appropriate, cadaver-based technique enhancement, alongside in-service training delivered in your own theatre.
​
Training is available for every technology we distribute, and teams can request a session for a new device or a refresher for existing staff.
