About
Dr. Hye-Chun Hur is a leading figure in gynecologic surgery and surgical education, best known for pioneering the rigorous assessment of robotic surgical skills. Her foundational work, "Validity and Reliability of the Robotic Objective Structured Assessment of Technical Skills" (85 citations), established the gold-standard framework for objectively measuring trainee competence in robotic surgery, directly addressing a critical gap in surgical training. She further defined performance benchmarks in "Establishing Benchmarks for Minimum Competence With Dry Lab Robotic Surgery Drills" (28 citations), providing concrete targets for residency programs. Dr. Hur also spearheaded a national needs assessment for the ACOG Simulation Working Group (26 citations), shaping simulation training priorities in OB/GYN residencies. Her clinical expertise extends to surgical outcomes, as demonstrated by her recent analysis of hysterectomy trends and vaginal cuff dehiscence risk (18 citations). Through her work, Dr. Hur has fundamentally advanced how surgeons are trained and evaluated, ensuring safer, more proficient adoption of robotic technology in women's health.
