Area of Science:

  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Surgical Education Technology

Background:

  • Laparoscopic surgery requires specialized technical skills.
  • Access to effective surgical simulators is crucial for training.
  • Cost can be a barrier to acquiring advanced laparoscopic training tools.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a construction guide for an inexpensive laparoscopic training simulator.
  • To enable accessible technical skills training in a simulated laparoscopic environment.

Main Methods:

  • Step-by-step instructions for assembling a homemade laparoscopic training box.
  • Utilizing readily available materials for cost-effectiveness.
  • Incorporating features to simulate key aspects of the laparoscopic environment.

Main Results:

  • The simulator can be built for approximately US$75, with potential savings to US$60.
  • The design effectively replicates challenges faced in real surgeries, such as trocar positioning and limited visibility.
  • The use of real trocars enhances the simulation's fidelity.

Conclusions:

  • This economical and efficient laparoscopic simulator offers a viable alternative for surgical training.
  • It has the potential to improve laparoscopic surgical technique education worldwide.
  • Enhanced training can ultimately benefit patient outcomes.
