Résumé fourni par la source

Challenges to surgical performance enhancementContinued Professional Development (CPD) and Continued Medical Education (CME) are essential elements of modern surgical practice.Traditionally, these have been achieved by attendance at medical conferences and training courses, alongside review of published literature.However, as these activities are predominantly focused on maintaining and updating the surgeon's knowledge base, it is unclear as to whether they truly impact the surgeon's daily practice and performance.Surgical coaching provides an opportunity to actively enhance the surgeon's operative practice within their own institution and offers the chance to share best practices globally.
