Laparoscopy Training in Surgical Education: The Utility of Incorporating a Structured Preclinical Laparoscopy Course into the Traditional Apprenticeship Method
Conclusions: Structured, preclinical proficiency-based training is better than clinical training combined with laboratory training or clinical training alone.

Measuring achievement goal motivation, mindsets and cognitive load: validation of three instruments ’ scores
ConclusionsITIS and CLI scores had appropriate internal structures and relationships with other variables. AGQ‐R scores fit a three‐factor (not four‐factor) model that collapsed avoidance into one domain, although relationships of other variables with the original four domain scores generally aligned with expectations. Mastery goals are positively correlated with germane cognitive load.

Early Intervention to Promote Medical Student Interest in Surgery and the Surgical Subspecialties
The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of a simple, easily reproducible intervention aimed at increasing first- and second-year medical student interest in surgery. Design: Surgery Saturday (SS) is a student-organized half-day intervention of four faculty-led workshops that introduce suturing, knot tying, open instrument identification, operating room etiquette, and basic laparoscopic skills. Medical students who attended SS were administered pre-/post-surveys that gauged change in surgical interest levels and provided a self-assessment (1-5 Likert-type items) of knowledge and skills acquisition. Partici...

Does a New Surgical Residency Program Increase Operating Room Times?
Background: Our country faces a shortage of surgeons; hence, we may anticipate the development of new surgery residencies. Therefore, the question of the effect of a new program on operating room times (ORT) is important. Our primary aim was to compare ORT of 3 common procedures done by attendings alone vs ORT of cases with residents.Methods: We queried records of 1458 patients from the JFK Medical Center database for laparoscopic cholecystectomy, open inguinal hernia repair, and laparoscopic appendectomy from July 2010 to July 2012. We divided the sample into 2 groups: “attending alone” (2010-2011) and “with residen...

Should medical students be given laparoscopic training?
Abstract Undergraduate medical education does not usually involve training in laparoscopic skills despite the fact that minimal access surgery has become the norm in the developed world. We designed a study to evaluate the attitude of surgeons and medical students to formal teaching of these skills. Two surveys were sent; one to fourth year medical students at the University of Bristol and another to specialist laparoscopic surgeons. Student questions centred on whether they would find training in basic laparoscopic skills useful, whilst surgeons were asked whether it would be acceptable for medical students to as...

Quantitative influence and performance analysis of virtual reality laparoscopic surgical training system
Virtual reality (VR) surgery training has become a trend in clinical education. Many research papers validate the effectiveness of VR-based surgical simulators in training medical students. However, most exist...

Mauna Kea Nixes Deal with Cook Medical
Citing a lack of commercial progress, Mauna Kea Technologies is calling off an agreement with Cook Medical that was signed a little over three years ago involving Mauna Kea's Cellvizio platform. Paris, France-based Mauna Kea said the decision to terminate the development and distribution agreements with Cook was mutual. Cook has not officially commented on the news. Cellvizio is a multidisciplinary probe and needle-based confocal laser endoscopy platform. The device enables direct visualization of human tissues at the cellular scale and allows doctors to detect anomalies invisible with standard techniques, part...

‘You see?’ Teaching and learning how to interpret visual cues during surgery
ConclusionsIn the training setting, learning visual cue interpretation occurs in part through co‐construction. Co‐construction is a pedagogic phenomenon that is well recognised in the context of learning to interpret verbal information. In articulating the features of co‐construction in the visual domain, this work enables the development of explicit pedagogic strategies for maximising trainees’ learning of visual cue interpretation. This is relevant to multiple medical specialties in which judgements must be based on visual information.

Viability and characterization trial of a novel method as an alternative to formaldehyde and Walter-Thiel cadaveric preservation for medical education and surgical simulation
CONCLUSIONS: Even though alternative PS are effective, high costs and complexity restrict their usage. Cadavers preserved with FFS had similar range of movements compared with Thiel. Students preferred to work with FFS rather than FF due to flexibility, color, and no sensorial hassles. Thus, we propose FFS as viable alternative to traditional PS.PMID:34373009 | DOI:10.1016/j.ciresp.2021.07.001

Procedural specificity in laparoscopic simulator training: protocol for a randomised educational superiority trial
The objective of this trial is to investigate the specificity of procedural practice in laparoscopic simulator training. Methods: A randomised single-centre educational superiority trial. Participants are 96 surgical novices (medical students) without prior laparoscopic experience. Participants start by practicing a series of basic skills tasks to a predefined proficiency level on a virtual reality laparoscopy simulator. Upon reaching proficiency, the participants are randomised to either the intervention group, which practices two procedures (an appendectomy followed by a salpingectomy) or to the control group, practicing...

Training basic laparoscopic skills using a custom-made video game
Abstract Video games are accepted and used for a wide variety of applications. In the medical world, research on the positive effects of playing games on basic laparoscopic skills is rapidly increasing. Although these benefits have been proven several times, no institution actually uses video games for surgical training. This Short Communication describes some of the theoretical backgrounds, development and underlying educational foundations of a specifically designed video game and custom-made hardware that takes advantage of the positive effects of games on basic laparoscopic skills.
