Dear colleagues,
We are reaching out to invite you to participate in a survey we have developed with the aim of analyzing the influence of sports practice on the surgical performance of neurosurgeons. Although there is extensive evidence supporting the benefits of physical exercise on professional performance in various fields, to date there are no specific studies evaluating this relationship within our specialty.
This study is an initiative led by Drs. Abarca-Olivas and Fernández-Villa del Rey from the General University Hospital of Alicante, in collaboration with Dr. Alvaro Campero from Argentina, who will share it with members of FLANC. Your participation would be of great value in exploring this issue and contributing to a better understanding of how sports habits can impact our physical and cognitive abilities in the surgical setting.
The survey is completely anonymous and will take no more than 5 minutes to complete. You can access it through the following link:

Sincerely,
Dr. Javier Abarca-Olivas
Dr. Jaime Fernández-Villa del Rey
Dr. Alvaro Campero
