Journal ArticleDOI

Virtual reality training improves operating room performance: results of a randomized, double-blinded study.

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

Virtual reality simulation for the operating room: proficiency-based training as a paradigm shift in surgical skills training.

TL;DR: Virtual reality (VR) for improved performance of MIS is now a reality, however, VR is only a training tool that must be thoughtfully introduced into a surgical training curriculum for it to successfully improve surgical technical skills.
Journal ArticleDOI

Virtual reality surgical simulator. The first steps.

TL;DR: The virtual reality surgical simulator signals the beginning of an era of computer simulation for surgery as mentioned in this paper, which will learn new perspectives on surgical anatomy and repeatedly practice surgical procedures until they are perfect before performing surgery on patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fundamental principles of validation, and reliability: rigorous science for the assessment of surgical education and training

TL;DR: There is no ‘‘magic bullet’’ experimental methodology for surgical research; instead, there is a range of experimental designs that should be applied appropriately to answer the pertinent research question, and research design should vary depending on the circumstances.
