Area of Science:

  • Surgical Education
  • Virtual Reality Simulation
  • Medical Training Technologies

Background:

  • Virtual reality (VR) offers immersive training potential for complex surgical procedures.
  • The Toolkit for Illustration of Procedures in Surgery (TIPS) enables surgeon-authored VR content.
  • No existing commercial VR modules are available for laparoscopic adrenalectomy training.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate user acceptance and effectiveness of a surgeon-authored VR training module for laparoscopic adrenalectomy.
  • To assess the viability of the TIPS framework for creating surgical training simulations.
  • To compare VR training effectiveness against traditional surgical education methods.

Main Methods:

  • A laparoscopic adrenalectomy VR module was developed using the TIPS framework with force-feedback simulation.
  • A quiz assessed procedural knowledge pre- and post-module use among residents and fellows.
  • Surgeons and trainees provided feedback via questionnaires and peer review.

Main Results:

  • Significant improvement in quiz scores for procedural steps after using the VR module.
  • 96% of respondents found the TIPS module highly effective for adrenalectomy preparation.
  • 100% of participants preferred the VR module over traditional training methods.

Conclusions:

  • Surgeon-authored VR training modules using TIPS are viable for complex surgical procedures.
  • The TIPS adrenalectomy module demonstrates effectiveness in enhancing surgical knowledge.
  • VR simulation is a preferred and effective training modality for surgical residents and fellows.
