The increased average case time associated with PGY-2 residents is likely due to a new level of increased autonomy in the operating room (OR) during this year of training. The linear regression results indicated PGY1-4 residents were more likely to have longer laparoscopic cholecystectomy operative times than the PGY5 residents, except PGY2s in urgent cases. This may reflect the accumulation of surgical skills at the PGY5 level. Resident involvement should be considered in the prediction of operative time in an academic setting.
