Renewed interest in robot-assisted cardiac procedures has been demonstrated by several studies. However, concerns have been raised about the need for a long and complex learning curve. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 might have affected the learning curve of these procedures. In this study, we investigated the impact of COVID-19 on the learning curve of robotic-assisted mitral valve surgery (RAMVS). The aim was to understand whether or not the benefits of RAMVS are compromised by its learning curve. Between May 2019 and March 2023, 149 patients underwent RAMVS using the Da Vinci X Surgical System at the Humanitas Gavazzeni Hospital, Bergamo, Italy. The selection of patients enrolled in the study was not influenced by case complexity. Regression models were used to formalize the learning curves, where preoperative data along with date of surgery and presence of COVID-19 were treated as the input covariates, while intraoperative and postoperative data were analyzed as output variables. The age of patients was 59.1 ± 13.3 years, and 70.5% were male. In total, 38.2% of the patients were operated on during the COVID-19 pandemic. The statistical analysis showed the positive impact of the learning curve on the trend of postoperative parameters, progressively reducing times and other key indicators. Focusing on the COVID-19 pandemic, statistical analysis did not recognize an impact on postoperative outcomes, although it became clear that variables not directly related to the intervention, especially ICU hours, were strongly influenced by hospital logistics during COVID-19. Understanding the learning curve of robotic surgical procedures is essential to ensure their effectiveness and benefits. The learning curve involves not only surgeons but also other health care providers, and establishing a stable team in the early stage, as in our case, is important to shorten the duration. In fact, an exogenous factor such as the COVID-19 pandemic did not affect the robotic program despite the fact that the pandemic occurred early in the program.
