2 Fig 1 Time required for robotic pericardiotomy by a senior surgeon (training = 0) vs surgeons being trained in endoscopic cardiac surgery with the Da Vinci telemanipulator (training = 1). The horizontal line in the middle of each box indicates the median; the top and bottom borders of the box mark the 75th and 25th percentiles, respectively; and the whiskers mark the 90th and 10th percentiles. The difference is statistically significant with a value of p = The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.athoracsur ) Copyright © 2009 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions
