Abstract
BACKGROUND: Currently, there is significant variability in the development, implementation and overarching goals of video review for assessment of surgical performance. METHODS: This paper evaluates the current methods in which video review is used for evaluation of surgical performance and identifies which processes are critical for successful, widespread implementation of video-based assessment. RESULTS: Despite the advances in video capture technology and growing interest in video-based assessment, there is a notable gap in the implementation and longitudinal use of formative and summative assessment using video. CONCLUSION: Validity, scalability and discoverability are current but removable barriers to video-based assessment.
