Declarations
:
: The first author of this study, Isaac Tranter-Entwistle, has received funding from Medtronic to undertake a PhD. The video upload and annotation was performed using Touch Surgery™ Enterprise, developed by Digital Surgery Ltd, a Medtronic company. The Touch Surgery™ application is freely available software for surgical trainee education. The authors have consulted on the development of a number of educational modules on the Touch Surgery™ application, including laparoscopic cholecystectomy, and have provided feedback on a few R&D projects with Medtronic. Study conceptualization, design, operative video recording, performance and analysis were all independent of Medtronic staff. Thomas Hugh has undertaken consultancy for Digital Surgery Ltd separate to the present study and was not involved in the analysis of results in this study. Saxon Connor has undertaken pro bono consultancy for Digital Surgery LTD developing a freely available educational application around laparoscopic cholecystectomy, as well as video annotation as part of an unrelated study. Tim Eglinton has undertaken consultancy for Digital Surgery Ltd separate to the present study.
