About
Ad J.M. Hendrikx is a pioneering researcher in robotic surgery training and skill assessment, with a focus on urological procedures. His major contributions center on developing structured, evidence-based training curricula for robot-assisted surgery, particularly for radical prostatectomy. He has demonstrated that proctoring can achieve results equivalent to simulator-generated guidance for novice surgeons, and his work on the Kinovea video motion tracking system provides an accessible tool for objective surgical movement analysis. His research also links surgical skills to postoperative outcomes, such as urinary continence, through Delphi studies and urethral stump measurements. With over 80 citations across his most-cited works, Hendrikx has shaped training practices in the Netherlands, advocating for multidisciplinary approaches to robotic surgery education. Notable achievements include his leadership in curriculum development for urology residents and his investigation of nontechnical skills in robotic versus open cystectomy. His work empowers surgeons and trainees to enhance both technical proficiency and patient outcomes through rigorous, data-driven training methodologies.
