Use of virtual platform for delivery of simulation-based laparoscopic training curriculum in LMICs.

A virtual simulation-based curriculum can be an effective strategy for laparoscopic skills training. Participants demonstrated an improvement in laparoscopic skills, and they appreciated the mentorship and opportunity to practice laparoscopic skills. Future programs can expand on using a virtual platform as a low-cost, effective strategy for providing laparoscopic skills training to surgeons in LMICs.
