Randomized Controlled Trial
The Role of Deconstructive Teaching in the Training of Laparoscopy.
Skills-lab training is crucial for the development of advanced laparoscopic skills. In this study, we examined whether a systematic deconstructive and comprehensive tutoring approach improves training results in laparoscopic suturing and intracorporeal knot tying. ⋯ Peyton's 4-step approach seemed to be superior for teaching laparoscopic skills to obstetrics and gynecology residents in the skills-lab setting and can be therefore proposed for training curricula.
