The introduction of robotic surgery into clinical practice brings new and specific needs for education and training. Application to the pediatric setting comes with unique considerations, warranting dedicated training resources that are accessible. A pediatric robotic surgery workshop was convened to address initial education and training requirements. The event was designed to offer an exposure rich environment for delegates to familiarize and learn basic principles in a maximally efficient manner. Pre- and post-workshop survey responses were evaluated to reflect on the quality of the educational experience and scope for improvement. Feasibility and sustainability of such events was further evaluated by reviewing various challenges encountered. A total of 29 surgeons participated in the workshop, with 7 countries represented. The majority of delegates (94 %) indicated they were "very satisfied" with the overall program. Delegates almost unanimously expressed preference and satisfaction for hands-on content. Qualitative feedback favored a stepwise and modular workshop structure, transitioning from didactic teaching to progressively more advanced training. At the basic and intermediate level, this style of event is able to satisfy initial training and educational needs. Feasibility and sustainability of such events is highly dependent on infrastructure resources that have numerous barriers to accessibility.
将机器人手术引入临床实践对教育和培训提出了新的特定需求。应用于儿科领域需要独特的考量，这就需要有可获取的专门培训资源。为此召开了一次儿科机器人手术研讨会，以满足初始教育和培训要求。该活动旨在为参会人员提供一个充满实践机会的环境，使其能够以最高效的方式熟悉并学习基本原则。对研讨会前后的调查反馈进行了评估，以反思教育体验的质量和改进空间。通过审视所遇到的各种挑战，进一步评估了此类活动的可行性和可持续性。共有29名外科医生参加了此次研讨会，代表了7个国家。大多数参会人员（94%）表示他们对整个项目“非常满意”。参会人员几乎一致表示对实践内容有偏好且满意。定性反馈支持采用逐步推进的模块化研讨会结构，从理论教学过渡到逐步深入的高级培训。在基础和中级层面，这种活动形式能够满足初始培训和教育需求。此类活动的可行性和可持续性高度依赖基础设施资源，而这些资源在获取方面存在诸多障碍。
