Hands-On Training Program
Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy
5 weeks surgical simulation program
Hands-on sessions with high-fidelity simulation models + live tutorization
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
This surgical simulation program combines hands-on training with online theoretical classes. Trainees will practice laparoscopic NVB Sparing Radical Prostatectomy on high-fidelity simulation models. Training will be tutorized in real-time by experienced professors.
At the end of the program, each trainee will achieve a strong theoretical basis for RP surgery and well-developed laparoscopic skills.

A new learning experience
Tutorized hands-on training with standardized skills-evaluation
How does it work?
You will receive 2 synthetic prostate models that are 100% operable. Don't worry about logistics, we will take care of everything. Shipping is included with your program's ticket.
As soon as you enroll, you will get access to Urotrainer's Online Academy and enjoy specific theoretical classes that will prepare you for the hands-on sessions.
Hands-on sessions are fully remote by Zoom. You will practice all the surgical steps of NS Radical Prostatectomy on the simulation models, and at every moment you will receive live feedback from our staff of professors.
At the end of the Program, you will get your certificate and a detailed report of your individual training performance.
(*) Surgical instruments, laptop, and tablet are not included. Laparoscopic box trainer is optional.
