Resident performance improved in knee arthroscopy with cadavers vs virtual simulation .
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.
Improving Resident Performance in Knee Arthroscopy: A Prospective Value Assessment of Simulators and Cadaveric Skills Laboratories
J Bone Joint Surg Am. 2016 Feb 3;98(3):220-557 orthopaedic residents of various experience levels were randomized to receive either no training between assessments (control group) or to receive 4 hours of either arthroscopic cadaveric or virtual reality simulation training. The purpose of this study was to compare these knee arthroscopy training methods in terms of completion time and performance improvements. The results indicated that the arthroscopic performance (ASSET Global Rating Scale) and completion time were significantly more improved in the cadaveric training group when compared to the control group. As well, the cadaveric group displayed significantly better improvements with respect to completion time when compared to the residents receiving virtual simulation training. No significant differences were noted between the simulation and control group for either performance or time to completion outcomes.
