Colorectal Robotics Course

In Spring 2022, ESNEFT invested in a further two Intuitive NowSIM robotic training simulators, in addition to the ICENI Centre-based NowSIM. 

The additional equipment enabled us to organise and administrate 30 hours of simulation training per delegate, to upskill 24 surgeons as part of a Robotic Level 2 Programme.

The ICENI Centre has helped enable this through opening our doors outside of normal working hours. Allowing surgeons to learn in a peaceful, stress-free environment at a time that suited them, and ensured patients care came first and wasn’t disrupted.

The simulation training was a precursor to cadaveric robotic training held at The Griffin Institute.  ICENI Centre faculty Mr Subash Vasudevan led this enterprising course for the continuing professional development of surgeons.
