Ovarian Cancer - From Pathogenesis to Treatment

Advanced ovarian cancer remains a disease with a poor prognosis. Surgical therapy remains the cornerstone of treatment with essential contribution from chemotherapy. The combination therapy continues to offer the best treatment strategy. Complete cytoreductive surgery is still the most important prognostic marker. The role of primary debulking surgery in advanced ovarian cancer remains under investigation through high quality rigorous clinical trials. The current evidence regarding primary versus interval debulking surgery has drawn much criticism regarding patient recruitment and quality of surgery, both of which are key pillars in achieving complete cytoreduction. It is expected that greater centralisation and development of 'ovarian cancer surgery teams' will further enhance clinical outcomes.

“…The GoPro is a small, lightweight, high-resolution action camera once mainly used by hobbyists in action sports, but has increasingly been utilised for a range of clinical education settings [6][7][8][9]. When worn with a head mount, it has a 149-degree wide-angle field of view that can capture the majority of visual information available to the wearer.…”

Use of GoPro point-of-view camera in intubation simulation—A randomized controlled trial

Introduction Teaching endotracheal intubation is uniquely challenging due to its technical, high-stakes, and highly time-sensitive nature. The GoPro is a small, lightweight, high-resolution action camera with a wide-angle field of view that can encompass both the airway as well as the procedurist’s hands and positioning technique when worn with a head mount. We aimed to evaluate its effectiveness in improving intubation teaching for novice learners in a simulated setting, via a two-arm, parallel group, randomized controlled superiority trial with 1:1 allocation ratio. Methods We recruited Year 4 medical students at the start of their compulsory 2-week Anesthesia posting. Participants underwent a standardized intubation curriculum and a formative assessment, then randomized to receive GoPro or non-GoPro led feedback. After a span of three months, participants were re-assessed in a summative assessment by blinded accessors. Participants were also surveyed on their learning experience for a qualitative thematic perspective. The primary outcomes were successful intubation and successful first-pass intubation. Results Seventy-one participants were recruited with no dropouts, and all were included in the analysis. 36 participants received GoPro led feedback, and 35 participants received non-GoPro led feedback. All participants successfully intubated the manikin. No statistically significant differences were found between the GoPro group and the non-GoPro group at summative assessment (85.3% vs 90.0%, p = 0.572). Almost all participants surveyed found the GoPro effective for their learning (98.5%). Common themes in the qualitative analysis were: the ability for an improved assessment, greater identification of small details that would otherwise be missed, and usefulness of the unique point-of-view footage in improving understanding. Conclusions The GoPro is a promising tool for simulation-based intubation teaching. There are considerations in its implementation to maximize the learning experience and yield from GoPro led feedback and training.

“…High‐definition intraoperative digital recording has demonstrated great value in surgical education and quality improvement . Both attending physicians and surgical residents prefer assessments based on surgical video compared to drawings, or written or verbal feedback . However, current options for intraoperative recording devices can be expensive, bulky, cumbersome to operate within the operating room (OR), and/or require a person to operate the camera.…”

Objectives/Hypothesis Intraoperative recording devices are being increasingly used to provide video for contemporary surgical training. The objective of this study was to evaluate the use of a smartphone as a low‐cost alternative to obtain high‐resolution video from the surgeon's perspective. Study Design A study evaluating the feasibility of using a head‐mounted smartphone with a telephoto lens for point‐of‐view surgical videography. Methods Video recordings of a rhinoplasty procedure were taken using a head‐mounted smartphone and two handheld cameras, a Canon Powershot SD1400 IS and a Sony HandyCam HDR‐CX160. Video clips were shown to 16 blinded otolaryngology residents (n = 10) and attending physicians (n = 6) for individual video evaluation using a Likert scale (1 being poor quality, 5 being excellent quality). In addition, the study participants were asked to select which video clip they preferred when presented to them side by side. Results The iPhone 7 was given the highest overall mean video quality rating of 3.9 ± 0.57 and was preferred over the two handheld cameras by nearly all surveyed surgeons. The Canon Powershot SD1400 IS was given a mean rating of 3.3 ± 1.0 and preferred over the SonyHandyCam HDR‐CX160 by all surgeons. The Sony HandyCam HDR‐CX160 was given a mean rating of 1.5 ± 0.13. Conclusions A head‐mounted smartphone equipped with a telephoto lens provides a novel method to intraoperative surgical recording. The design is simple, low cost, and allows the surgeon to capture fine anatomical detail from the desirable point‐of‐view perspective. Level of Evidence NA Laryngoscope, 129:578–581, 2019
