Improved arthroscopic-related skill with virtual-reality training in inexperienced surgeon .
This study has been identified as potentially high impact.
OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself.
Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone.
This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.
Development of simulated arthroscopic skills
Acta Orthop. 2011 Feb;82(1):90-5. Epub 2011 Feb 121 orthopaedic surgeons participated in this study. 14 inexperienced surgeons were randomized to undergo virtual reality (VR) training for shoulder arthroscopy or no training, while 7 experienced surgeons acted as controls. The primary outcomes were 5-parameters based on the VR unit. Results indicated the inexperienced intervention group showed improvement in arthroscopic skills (based on the VR) unit from the first testing period to the second testing period. The experienced surgeons demonstrated comparable outcomes between both testing periods, while the inexperienced control group demonstrated large variations in the outcomes. Further studies are required to determine the transferability of skills developed from the VR unit into the operating theatre.
