  • Descrição: Background After completion of training, practicing surgeons rely on hands-on courses to expand their procedure armamentarium and improve their surgical technique. However, such courses vary in standardized teaching methods. SAGES developed the Acquisition of Data for Outcomes and Procedure Transfer (ADOPT) program as a method of longitudinal instruction utilizing standardized teaching techniques, mentorship, and webinars to cover additional techniques. This study examines the adoption of learned techniques and participant confidence before and after an ADOPT course focused on extended-view totally extraperitoneal (eTEP) hernia repair. Methods A hands-on course focused on eTEP hernia repair was conducted with enrollment capped at 10 participants. Pre-course and post-course surveys at 3, 6, and 12 months determined implementation of the learned procedure, case volume, and confidence with eTEP skills. A 5-point Likert scale (1 = not confident at all to 5 = completely confident) assessed confidence levels. Survey responses were summarized using descriptive statistics. Results Of the 10 participants, 10 (100%) completed the pre-course survey, and 7 (70%) completed at least one post-course survey. Median age was 48.5 years (36,56) with a median of 16 years (2,23) in practice, mostly in the community setting (70%). After the course, 50% had performed an eTEP procedure, and 100% reported considering this technique during surgical planning. Participants reported higher confidence in eTEP-specific skills at three months post-course from pre-course levels. The highest change in confidence was seen for the following skills: accessing the retromuscular/extraperitoneal space for ventral hernia and recognizing when the linea alba has been violated, p  < 0.05. Conclusion This study shows that rapid incorporation of learned techniques can be achieved through the ADOPT format. Furthermore, through longitudinal mentorship and a structured hands-on course, the ADOPT course supports practicing surgeons to attain autonomy and confidence even when teaching a relatively technically challenging procedure, such as eTEP.
