“…81 Several studies have shown that both the minimally invasive surgical trainer-virtual reality (MIST-VR) (Mentice, Gothenburg, Sweden) and LapSim® Gyn VR systems (Surgical Science, Gothenburg, Sweden) are valid and reliable methods of assessing psychomotor skills for various laparoscopic procedures. [81][82][83][84][85] Furthermore, randomised controlled studies have demonstrated the benefits of high-fidelity simulation training for performing laparoscopic cholecystectomy, 86,87 endoscopy 88 and catheter-based interventions. 89 The main advantage of simulations is that they allow unlimited practice for trainees to learn a new procedure before moving to patients, thus providing a new opportunity to learn safely from mistakes.…”

HTAAssessing the surgical skills of trainees in the operating theatre: a prospective observational study of the methodology NIHR Health Technology Assessment programmeThe Health Technology Assessment (HTA) programme, part of the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR), was set up in 1993. It produces high-quality research information on the effectiveness, costs and broader impact of health technologies for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS. 'Health technologies' are broadly defined as all interventions used to promote health, prevent and treat disease, and improve rehabilitation and long-term care. The research findings from the HTA programme directly influence decision-making bodies such as the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the National Screening Committee (NSC). HTA findings also help to improve the quality of clinical practice in the NHS indirectly in that they form a key component of the 'National Knowledge Service' . The HTA program...

“…Diese Ergebnisse stimmen mit den Ergebnissen von Grantcharov et al [4] und Gallagher et al [2] überein. Beide Arbeitsgruppen konnten ebenfalls mit einem Laparoskopiesimulator (Minimally Invasive Surgical Trainer; Virtual Reality -MIST VR) die Unterschiede in der Laparoskopieerfahrung verschiedener Chirurgen abbilden.…”
