Exercise L-4: intracorporeal tie
Creator: AAGL
Duration: 3:04
The participant is positioned and provided laparoscopic scissors and the same choices of needle drivers or grasper offered in Exercise L-3 (see Video 4, http://links.lww.com/xxx). The exercise goal was to pass a 15-cm 2-0 polygalactin 910 suture (Vicryl), swedged on to a 26-mm ½ curved tapered needle through the marks on the Penrose and approximate the defect with a knot comprising three intracorporeally formed throws, the first of which was a double throw —a surgeon’s knot. The maximal allowed time and errors recorded were identical to those for Exercise L-3. Video created by AAGL. Used with permission.

Exercise L-3: extracorporeal tie
Creator: AAGL
Duration: 3:42
After selecting a side of the trainer box, each participant was provided laparoscopic scissors and then chose a standardized, non–self-righting Fundamentals in Laparoscopic Surgery laparoscopic needle driver, and another grasping instrument—either another identical needle driver or one of the Maryland forceps. The exercise goal was to pass a 90-cm 2-0 silk suture with a swedged-on 26mm, ½ curved, and tapered needle through the paired target marks on the Penrose. Then, participants approximated the linear defect with a knot comprising three, single, extracorporeally formed throws, each sequentially transferred into the trainer and tightened with a choice of two knot manipulators. To end the exercise, the participant was required to cut both ends of the suture with the laparoscopic scissors. Video created by AAGL. Used with permission.

Exercise L-2: pattern cut
Creator: AAGL
Duration: 3:05
The participant selected a side of the trainer box and was provided 5-mm outside diameter (OD) laparoscopic scissors and a 5-mm OD Maryland grasper. The exercise goal was to cut out the central circle, incising only the top layer of the gauze, and without the cut transecting the inner or outer boundaries. Video created by AAGL.

Exercise L-1: sleeve-peg transfer
Creator: AAGL
Duration: 3:07
Participants were asked to select a side of the trainer box and were provided two 5-mm laparoscopic outside diameter laparoscopic Maryland forceps. The exercise comprised moving each of the six sleeves on the floor-mounted peg module to one of the six pegs located in panels 1 through 5 of the LaparoBowl, making at least one transfer from one forceps to the other in the process. Once this was accomplished, the participant was asked to reverse the process. Video created by AAGL. Used with permission.

Creator: Sophie Delplanque, MD and Krystel Nyangoh Timoh, MD, PhD
Duration: 3:57
This video is a step-by-step operative technique for educational purposes. The current pregnancy was complicated by severe preeclampsia, the medical team decided to perform a vaginal cesarean delivery for maternal salvage. The operative technique consists of 4 steps. Step 1 is the sagittal and vertical incision of the cervix then the bladder with the anterior vaginal wall pushed upwards. Step 2 is the exposing the lower uterine segment and making a vertical segment incision up to the highest part of the lower uterine segment. Step 3 is the extraction of the fetus and the step 4 is the reconstruction of the lower uterine segment by separate sutures.

Vaginal Hysterectomy Surgical Skills Curriculum: Task Video
Creator: Sunil Balgobin, Cherine A. Hamid, Chris Caudle, and Clifford Y. Wai.
Duration: 6:42
Declining vaginal hysterectomy numbers in Obstetrics and Gynecology training programs underscores the need to improve the teaching of vaginal surgical skills. Barriers to performing vaginal hysterectomy include technical difficulty, low caseload, lack of requisite skills, and lack of experience with need for more training. To enhance surgical education, we developed a proficiency-based vaginal hysterectomy suturing technical skills curriculum. The objective of this video is to illustrate the correct performance, proper surgical technique, and time and error evaluation for four important vaginal hysterectomy suturing tasks (Heaney pedicle stitch, simple pedicle stitch, double ligature, and continuous running stitch).

Vaginal Hysterectomy Surgical Skills Curriculum
Creator: Sunil Balgobin and Chris Caudle
Duration: 3:21
Declining vaginal hysterectomy numbers in Obstetrics and Gynecology training programs highlights the need for innovative methods to teach vaginal surgical skills. Unfortunately, simple inexpensive vaginal hysterectomy models are difficult to construct due to complex pelvic anatomy and the unique vaginal surgical field. The objective of this video is to demonstrate construction of a low-cost, low-fidelity vaginal hysterectomy suturing skills bench model to simulate the Heaney pedicle stitch, simple pedicle stitch, double ligature, and continuous running stitch.

Tissue Model for Laparoscopic Colpotomy Simulation
Creator: Maureen Cho, Clarissa Lam, Veronica Lerner
Duration: 6:56
Laparoscopic hysterectomy is challenging to teach, and colpotomy is considered to be one of the most challenging steps. We have developed a low-cost partial task trainer to teach the colpotomy portion of a laparoscopic hysterectomy. The model consists of porcine stomach attached to a uterine manipulator, and a reusable uterus replica. Video consists of how-to step-by-step instructions to create the model and demonstrates is use in different settings. Video created by Maureen Cho, Clarissa Lam, Veronica Lerner.
