We developed LapSim, a surgical skills training application with a novel software framework. This framework, modeled on a classroom, centralizes student data for progress tracking and performance comparison.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Surgical Simulation
  • Software Engineering

Background:

  • Traditional surgical training faces limitations in objective skill assessment and personalized feedback.
  • The increasing complexity of minimally invasive surgery necessitates advanced training tools.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce LapSim, a new surgical skills training application.
  • To detail the design, architecture, and conceptual framework underpinning LapSim.
  • To establish a scalable and robust platform for surgical skills development.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a software framework based on a classroom metaphor with distinct student and teacher roles.
  • Implemented a centralized database for storing and managing student information, course data, and performance results.
