Area of Science:

  • Medical Simulation
  • Otolaryngology Training
  • Surgical Education Technology

Background:

  • Virtual reality (VR) simulators offer potential for surgical training.
  • Assessing the validity of VR platforms is crucial for effective integration into Otolaryngology curricula.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically review the validity data of VR surgical simulator platforms used in Otolaryngology.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic review of Ovid and Embase databases (searched July 2013).
  • Independent review of 409 abstracts; 36 full-text articles assessed for face, content, construct, or predictive validity.
  • Stratification by simulator type, sub-specialty, and validation method.

Main Results:

  • 21 articles reported on temporal bone (12), endoscopic sinus (6), and myringotomy (3) surgery simulators.
  • Construct validation demonstrated simulators reliably differentiate experience levels.
  • Simulation training improved cadaver dissection and operating room performance.

Conclusions:

  • VR simulator platforms, especially for temporal bone and endoscopic sinus surgery, are suitable for training programs.
  • Standardized metrics are essential for developing Otolaryngology training curricula.
