Filter by:The goal of this comparative blinded assessment study is to compare ratings of crowd workers and expert ratings in simulated robot-assisted radical prostatectomies The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - to examine the use of crowdsourced assessment for assessing the performance of robot-assisted rad-ical prostatectomy (RARP) compared with using experienced surgeons - to explore if some CW are better than others. Participants will assess edited videos of simulated robot assisted radical prostatecotmies using a standardized assessment tool. The laypersons will be asked to answer yes/no to the question: 'Would you trust this doctor to perform robot-assisted surgery on you?' after each surgery. All participants were blinded to the identity of the surgeon performing the videos of the robot-assisted radical prostatectomy Researchers will compare laypersons with expert raters to see if any difference between their ratings
The team aims to develop and test the efficacy of a serious mental illness (SMI) and suicide ideation and attempt (SIA) stigma reduction intervention for medical students. The team expects that after intervention exposure, relative to control group, participants in the experimental condition will manifest more favorable change in knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors.
The study is a randomized experimental study comparing two forms of learning; guided-discovery-learning and traditional instructional learning. Recruiting sixty-four participants, the investigators plan on comparing these two groups through a procedural skill in the form of suturing. In the case of guided-discovery-learning, the group will be allowed a discovery phase before instruction. In contrast, the control group will receive traditional instruction-lead-learning, in which a teacher teaches the participants a skill, and afterwards the participants practice it. After the teaching session, both groups will undertake a post-test of skill-level. A week later both groups will undertake a test for the execution of the learned suturing skill to a more complex version of the original task (Near-transfer). They will also undergo a test for the ability to transfer their learning to a new skill (i.e. preparation for future learning), in this case a new suture (Far-transfer). By filming these tests and having a blinded expert rater score them, the investigators will be able to get a measurement of attained transfer of skill-level throughout the procedures. The investigators hypothesis is that, the participants in the Guided-discovery-group will have an equal score to that of the traditional-learning group in the ability to obtain a skill and transfer it to a more complex version. Furthermore, the investigators hypothesize that the Guided-discovery-group will score better than the traditional-learning group in the case of transferring the procedural knowledge to learning a new skill. As well as testing the efficacy of guided-discovery-learning on a procedural skill, the investigators wish to investigate how and why it works. By filming a subset of participants in each group, as well as using questionnaires, and focus-group interviews the investigators will explore how participants interact in this different learning-environment compared to the traditional instructional learning-environment.
This prospective randomized study aims for determination whether focused simulator based laparoscopic camera training in novices can improve camera performance in an actual clinical situations in the same manner as traditional training in the OR does, especially considering efficient use of training time.
The purpose is to determine if skills obtained by training in the laparoscopic virtual reality simulator LapSimGyn can be transferred to a real laparoscopic operation measured as improved score in a technical skills assessment.
