Self-retaining retractors are essential to providing and maintaining exposure of target anatomy across surgical specialties. To maximize the function of retractors in the operating room (OR), surgeons must possess the knowledge of retractor types and proper placement for optimal visualization while avoiding patient injury. Despite the criticality of self-retaining retractors for a safe and successful operative experience, there is no known curriculum dedicated to teaching residents about the proper use of retractors. The goal of our project is to design and implement a curriculum to teach surgical residents self-retaining retractor types, proper selection, and optimal placement in a low-stakes simulation-based environment.
