Journal ArticleDOI
Validation of orthopaedic bench models for trauma surgery
Julian Leong,Daniel R. Leff,Aparoop Das,Rajesh Aggarwal,Peter T. A. Reilly,H. D. E. Atkinson,Roger Emery,Ara Darzi +7 more
TL;DR: This study has validated a low-cost, high-fidelity porcine dynamic compression plate model using video rating scores for skills assessment and movement analysis and demonstrated that Synbone models for the application of and intramedullary nail and an external fixator are less sensitive and should be improved for further assessment of surgical skills in trauma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deliberate practice enhances quality of laparoscopic surgical performance in a randomized controlled trial: from arrested development to expert performance
Daniel A. Hashimoto,Pramudith Sirimanna,Ernest D. Gomez,Laura Beyer-Berjot,K. A. Ericsson,Noel N. Williams,Ara Darzi,Rajesh Aggarwal +7 more
TL;DR: This study suggests that DP leads to higher quality performance in VR LC than standard training alone, and may leave individuals in a state of “arrested development” compared with DP.
Journal ArticleDOI
Meta-analysis of the effect of postoperative in-hospital morbidity on long-term patient survival.
TL;DR: The aim of this review was to examine the effects of postoperative complications on long‐term survival.
Journal ArticleDOI
Objective assessment of technical skills in cardiac surgery
Julian Hance,Rajesh Aggarwal,Rex Stanbridge,Christopher Blauth,Yaron Munz,Ara Darzi,John Pepper +6 more
TL;DR: The use of bench-top tasks to differentiate between cardiac surgeons of differing technical abilities has been validated for the first time and it is unnecessary to perform post-hoc video rating to obtain objective data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Visuospatial and psychomotor aptitude predicts endovascular performance of inexperienced individuals on a virtual reality simulator
Isabelle Van Herzeele,Kevin G.L. O'Donoghue,Rajesh Aggarwal,Frank Vermassen,Ara Darzi,Nicholas J.W. Cheshire +5 more
TL;DR: There were significant correlations between initial endovascular skill and fine motor dexterity as well as with image recall at end of the training period and VSA may be a useful tool for predictive validity studies.
