Area of Science:

  • Surgical Research
  • Human Factors Engineering
  • Medical Education Technology

Background:

  • Eye tracking (ET) is increasingly utilized to understand surgical team visual behavior.
  • A comprehensive review of ET's application in surgical research was previously lacking.
  • This study addresses the need to evaluate the evidence and applications of ET in surgery.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify and assess the quality of evidence for eye tracking in surgical research.
  • To synthesize the applications of eye tracking in informing surgical practice.
  • To provide recommendations for improving future eye tracking surgical studies.

Main Methods:

  • A systematic literature review was conducted following PRISMA guidelines.
  • Searches were performed across major databases (MEDLINE, Cochrane, Embase, Web of Science) up to September 2020.
  • Studies measuring surgical team visual behavior using ET during surgical tasks were included and assessed.

Main Results:

  • 111 studies were included from 7614 identified.
  • Key applications include skill assessment (41%), visual attention (22%), workload (17%), and training (10%).
  • Three areas for improvement in future ET surgical studies were identified.

Conclusions:

  • This review offers a comprehensive overview of ET applications in surgery.
  • Eye tracking data can inform surgical practice and enhance surgical education.
  • The findings will aid in the design and execution of future ET surgical research.
