Area of Science:

  • Surgical Simulation
  • Medical Education Technology

Background:

  • Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical technique requiring specialized skills.
  • Effective training tools are essential for developing proficiency in arthroscopy.
  • Simulated training devices offer a safe and accessible platform for skill acquisition.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the utility and validate a novel arthroscopy simulator for training fundamental arthroscopic skills.
  • To assess the construct validity of the simulator by comparing performance across different experience levels.

Main Methods:

  • Forty-six participants (novices, intermediates, experts) completed a questionnaire and performed a standardized task on the simulator.
  • Task involved transferring a rubber ring using a probe and 0° camera within a time limit.
  • Performance metrics included total task time and frequency of portal replacements.

Main Results:

  • The arthroscopy simulator demonstrated high training potential, with 89% rating its capacity favorably.
  • Novices were significantly slower and made more portal changes than intermediate and expert groups (P=.005 and P=.019, respectively).
  • 83% of participants believed the simulator is useful for improving arthroscopic skills, and 93% would recommend it.

Conclusions:

  • The arthroscopy simulator shows promise as a valuable tool for basic arthroscopy skill acquisition.
  • Construct validity was established, as the device differentiated performance based on surgical experience.
  • While effective, some participants noted certain disadvantages, indicating areas for future refinement.
