About
Dr. James M. Bowling is a leading figure in female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery, with a focused expertise in the objective assessment of surgical proficiency. His most influential work, "Robotic Sacrocolpopexy Performance and Cumulative Summation Analysis" (2014), pioneered the application of Cumulative Summation (CUSUM) analysis to robotic sacrocolpopexy (RSCP). By retrospectively analyzing outcomes at the University of North Carolina, Dr. Bowling provided a rigorous, data-driven framework for monitoring surgical learning curves and defining competency benchmarks. This contribution has been cited 8 times, establishing a methodological standard for evaluating robotic surgical skills in urogynecology. His research directly addresses the critical need for objective quality metrics in minimally invasive pelvic surgery, influencing how training programs and individual surgeons track proficiency over time. Dr. Bowling’s work bridges the gap between surgical innovation and evidence-based practice, offering a reproducible tool that enhances patient safety and surgical education. His dedication to advancing surgical analytics marks him as a key contributor to the evolution of robotic pelvic reconstruction.
