Abstract / Description of output
Introduction. Cognitive task analysis (CTA) has recently gained the attention of surgical educators and the present study is investigating the cognitive demands of the Liver Transplantation procedure. Methods. In-depth interviews, following the Applied Cognitive Task Analysis protocol with four consultant transplant surgeons. Results. Eleven elements that show evidence of significant cognitive demands were extracted across the dataset. Conclusion. This study begins to reveal the origin and contents of transplant surgeons’ decision-making expertise. Applying CTA techniques to this domain is an essential step to modernisation of surgical training and possesses value for both decision-making researchers and medical practitioners.
