ObjectiveTo design a virtual operation of joint replacement for surgical drills using a haptic device, SenSable_FreeForm_Modelling (SFM), to enhance surgeons' efficiency and enable “Virtual tutorial without reality” for interns.MethodA patient with hip joint osteoarthritis is randomly selected to perform Total Hip Replacement (THR). The hip images were input into Mimics in the format of *.dicom after CT scan and then exported to SFM using the stereolithographic (*.stl) format. A surgical toolkit can be created virtually with Computer Aided Design software such as Pro‐E or Ghost SDK and a visual drill scenario of THR directed by a force‐respondent stick, namely Phantom.Result3D models of the hip joint were rebuilt illustrating clearly that the geometrical shapes of the surgical equipment created are similar to real instruments, and the THR operation is emulated distinctly in novelty.ConclusionIn obedience to an ancient maxim, so called ‘genuine knowledge originated from practice’, this simulative operation offers hands‐on experience for students in the orthopaedics field with remarkable effects, contributing not only teaching cases for medical courses but also a planning basis for physical surgery.

“…The clinical and patient-related effects of integrating assessments and e.g., simulation-based training and mastery learning approaches, are rarely published. This is due to a huge amount of covariables affecting the clinical and patient-related outcomes, but few studies have been published proving the clinical effect of simulation-based training [31,32]. In basic thoracic ultrasound this has not yet been proven.…”

Background Basic thoracic ultrasound is being used more frequently by clinicians in several settings due to its high diagnostic accuracy for many common causes of respiratory failure and dyspnoea. However, ultrasound examinations are operator-dependent, and sufficient competences are needed to obtain high sensitivity and specificity of examinations. Additionally, it is crucial for ultrasound operators to perceive the competence to interpret the images and integrate them into the patient history and other examinations. This study aims to explore and gather validity evidence for an objective structured clinical examination test of basic thoracic ultrasound competences and establish a pass/fail score. Methods An expert panel created the test which included two theoretical and five practical stations representing cases with different diagnoses that cause respiratory symptoms and which are possible to establish by basic thoracic ultrasound. Twenty-five participants with different levels of experience in basic thoracic ultrasound completed the test. Data of the test scores were used for item analysis, and exploring validity evidence was done according to Messick’s framework which is recommended. The contrasting groups' standard setting method was used to establish a pass/fail score. Results The summarised internal consistency reliability was high with a Cronbach’s alpha of 0.87. The novice group (n = 4) had a mean test score of 42 ± 10.1 points, the intermediate group (n = 8) scored 79.1 ± 8.1 points, and the experienced group (n = 13) 89.0 ± 6.2 points (one-way ANOVA, p < 0.001). A pass/fail score of 71 points was thus derived (maximum test score = 105 points). Conclusion We developed a test for the assessment of clinical competences in basic thoracic ultrasound with solid validity evidence, and a pass/fail standard with no false positives or false negatives.

“…These scenarios are regularly used in emergency medical services, medical studies, and medical training [3]. Although simulators are also already commercially available for many obstetric, surgical, and other minimally invasive interventions [4][5][6], their use is only included in individual cases in national training guidelines [7,8]. However, particularly in advanced training, practice on models can prepare physicians for the first application in patients and can also be a useful tool for the transfer of practical knowledge.…”

Background Simulation training is a common method in many medical disciplines and is used to teach content knowledge, manual skills, and team skills without potential patient danger. Methods Simulation models and methods in interventional radiology are explained. Strengths and weaknesses of both simulators for non-vascular and vascular radiological interventions are highlighted and necessary future developments are addressed. Results Both custom-made and commercially available phantoms are available for non-vascular interventions. Interventions are performed under ultrasound guidance, with computed tomography assistance, or using mixed-reality methods. The wear and tear of physical phantoms can be countered with in-house production of 3D-printed models. Vascular interventions can be trained on silicone models or hightech simulators. Increasingly, patient-specific anatomies are replicated and simulated pre-intervention. The level of evidence of all procedures is low. Conclusion Numerous simulation methods are available in interventional radiology. Training on silicone models and hightech simulators for vascular interventions has the potential to reduce procedural time. This is associated with reduced radiation dose for both patient and physician, which can also contribute to improved patient outcome, at least in endovascular stroke treatment. Although a higher level of evidence should be achieved, simulation training should already be integrated into the guidelines of the professional societies and accordingly into the curricula of the radiology departments.
