Abstract：Objective:To summarize the research on training of robotic-assisted surgery nurses at home and abroad,and to provide reference for establishing the training system of robotic-assisted surgery nurses.Methods:A systematic search was conducted on researches related to the training of robotic-assisted surgery nurses in PubMed,Web of Science,CINAHL,the Cochrane Library,China Biomedical Literature Database,CNKI,VIP database and WanFang database.The search period was established until November 15,2023.And the literature was selected and the information extracted.Results:A total of 27 literatures were included.The results showed that the existing training of robotic-assisted surgery nurses lacked scientific theoretical basis and construction methods.And the access standards for training subjects were not uniform.The training chiefly focused on robotic surgery.A small number of trainings covering non-technical skills.There were various training methods,mainly traditional teaching.The length and cycle of training varied greatly.The admission standard of training teachers was not perfect.The assessment methods were mainly theory assessment and skill assessment.The exploration of training effect was still limited.Conclusions:The existing training programs for robotic-assisted surgery nurses were not scientific and normative.In the future,a comprehensive and standardized training program for robotic-assisted surgery nurses should be constructed using scientific methods on the basis of relevant teaching theories and combined with clinical needs from a multidisciplinary perspective.
