  • Incorporated simulators into the Society of Neurological Surgeons postgraduate year 1 courses and curriculum.
  • Employed iterative improvements based on resident and faculty feedback surveys.

    • Main Results:

    • Developed simulation models using readily available materials and surgical technology.
    • Broke down common surgical procedures into fundamental skills for early learners.
    • Trainees practiced component skills in simulation before live procedures under supervision.

    Conclusions:

    • Model-based simulation is highly effective for early surgical learners within a structured curriculum.
    • Over 600 residents utilized simulation in the Society of Neurological Surgeons boot camp courses.
    • Continuous refinement of simulation models and curriculum is ongoing.
