[Construction and Exploration of Simulative Virtual Curriculum of Laparoscopy for Standardized Surgical Residency...

Laparoscopic operations have become an indispensable therapeutic measure in surgical treatment due to the emerging trends of minimal invasiveness and precision in the field of surgery. Laparoscopic skills have gradually become part of the essential skills for young surgeons and hospitals at all levels are giving high priority to laparoscopic skills training. The innovation and development of simulative and virtual medical technology has given rise to effective ways and platforms for the training of laparoscopy surgeons in China. Based on the laparoscopy simulative virtual technology, our hospital gradually developed a systematic training and evaluation system for the laparoscopy training of surgical residents by offering theory courses on laparoscopy, conducting simulative and virtual systematic training, and developing assessment criteria for the training. Herein, we presented and shared our experience in applying laparoscopy simulative virtual technology in the training of surgical residents in order to promote the standardized residency training of laparoscopic skills in China and to provide reference for the implementation of standardized training of laparoscopic skills.
