This study introduces a videoscopic "bench" training program for surgical residents to enhance eye-hand coordination. The program significantly improved resident performance by 37%, proving effective and economical for laparoscopic surgery training.

Area of Science:

  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Surgical Education

Background:

  • Laparoscopy offers a novel approach in general surgery, with techniques evolving rapidly.
  • Effective training for surgical residents in laparoscopy is crucial for patient safety and operative efficiency.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the efficacy of a videoscopic "bench" training program for junior surgical residents.
  • To improve residents' eye-hand coordination and proficiency in laparoscopic procedures.

Main Methods:

  • A proficiency videoscopic study involving nine junior surgical residents.
  • Implementation of structured "bench" training exercises focused on eye-hand coordination.
  • Performance evaluation before and after the training intervention.

Main Results:

  • A statistically significant improvement in resident performance, averaging 37% (P = 0.0109).
  • Demonstrated effectiveness and cost-efficiency of the videoscopic training program.

Conclusions:

  • The videoscopic "bench" training program is an effective and economical method for enhancing laparoscopic skills.
  • The program is reproducible and can be readily integrated into existing surgical residency curricula.
