Brief Title

Efficacy of Proficiency-based Versus Free Laparoscopic Training in Cholecystectomy on a Virtual Reality Simulator

Official Title

Proficiency-based Versus Free Laparoscopic Training in Cholecystectomy Using the Simbionix LAP Mentor™. A Randomized Controlled Trial

Brief Summary

      Virtual reality devices are widely accepted tools to familiarize surgical novices with the
      principles of laparoscopy. Free Virtual reality training will be tested against basic
      training and efficacy assessed in a randomized controlled trial of surgical novices.

Detailed Description

      Virtual reality simulators are widely accepted tools to familiarize surgical novices with the
      principles of laparoscopy without jeopardizing patient safety. However, access to a Virtual
      reality simulator and initial instruction alone followed by free training of the surgical
      novice may not be sufficient to achieve the training goals efficiently. The aims of this
      study are to determine if proficiency based laparoscopic training on the Simbionx LAP Mentor™
      with external formative assessment using peer group derived benchmarks is superior to free
      training with self-assessment using the simulated laparoscopic cholecystectomy procedure with
      different endpoints (time to extract the gallbladder, serious complications, safe cautery and
      instrument pathways) as outcome parameters.

Study Type

Interventional

Primary Outcome

Time to extract the gall bladder.

Secondary Outcome

 Serious intra-operative complications

Condition
