Journal ArticleDOI
Virtual reality training improves operating room performance: results of a randomized, double-blinded study.
Neal E. Seymour,Anthony G. Gallagher,Sanziana A. Roman,Michael K. O'Brien,Vipin K. Bansal,Dana K. Andersen,Richard M. Satava +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the use of VR surgical simulation to train skills and reduce error risk in the operating room (OR) has been demonstrated in a prospective, randomized, blinded stud.
Journal ArticleDOI
VR to OR: a review of the evidence that virtual reality simulation improves operating room performance.
TL;DR: The use of virtual reality (VR) simulation to train surgeons has been supported by a body of experimental data derived from randomized trials of VR simulation training versus no such training, which has generally demonstrated that skills acquired through courses of training in VR transfer to the clinical or animal laboratory setting.
Journal ArticleDOI
Boot cAMP: educational outcomes after 4 successive years of preparatory simulation-based training at onset of internship.
Gladys Fernández,David W. Page,Nicholas P. W. Coe,Patrick C. Lee,Lisa Patterson,Loki Skylizard Md,Myron R. St. Louis,Marisa H. Amaral,Richard B. Wait,Neal E. Seymour +9 more
TL;DR: Individual simulation-based Boot Camp performance scores for cognitive and procedural skills assessments in PGY-1 residents correlate with subjective and objective clinical performance evaluations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prospective, randomized assessment of transfer of training (ToT) and transfer effectiveness ratio (TER) of virtual reality simulation training for laparoscopic skill acquisition
Anthony G. Gallagher,Neal E. Seymour,Julie Anne Jordan-Black,Brendan Bunting,Kieran McGlade,Richard M. Satava +5 more
TL;DR: VR simulation training offers a powerful and effective platform for training safer skills and demonstrates ToT, a detectable performance improvement between equivalent groups, and TER, the observed percentage performance differences between 2 matched groups carrying out the same task but with 1 group pretrained on VR simulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Psychomotor skills assessment in practicing surgeons experienced in performing advanced laparoscopic procedures.
Anthony G. Gallagher,C. Daniel Smith,Steven P. Bowers,Neal E. Seymour,Adam Pearson,Steven McNatt,David Hananel,Richard M. Satava +7 more
TL;DR: Objective assessment of laparoscopic psychomotor skills is now possible and may form the methodology for establishing criteria levels and performance objectives in objective assessment of the technical skills component of determining surgical competence.
