Filter by:This research will be carried out with the aim of making this practice practical with simulation-based training and improving cognitive, affective and psychomotor skills, and then applying it in the clinic, before applying the nasogastric tube placement application, which is included in enteral nutrition, to the child in the clinic.
The investigators aim to implement a quality improvement initiative using the device briefing tool (DBT) and the Safe Surgery Checklist (SSC) and to evaluate its effect on patient safety measures and on safety culture with the introduction of a new surgical device in Singapore hospitals. Within eligible hospitals, J&J and Ariadne Labs staff will train local implementation teams to, in turn, train operating room teams to use the DBT and SSC. Project-specific outcomes will be measured by neutral observers and via survey data. Throughout the quality improvement initiative, hospitals will receive ongoing training and coaching on their interventions and feedback on their outcomes.
Due to the corona pandemia and the consecutive reduction of teaching students face to face the imparting of medical skills is limited. Video sequences may be an adequate alternative to educate selected practical skills. So, the investigators intend to explore this aspect as a first concerning two basic medical skills: Donati suture and intraosseous venous access.
Learning is a complex process and influenced by a number of factors including the innate ability of the trainee, previous experiences (e.g. video game skills, music instrument skills), learning style and the overall learning environment. Understanding of the learning process and factors influencing the learning shall help develop and plan an effective curriculum for the trainees. The investigators plan to use medical students as a part of the study since they have little or no prior knowledge or experience of laparoscopic skills. If any factors are identified, the investigators can help guide the participants for future training as well as develop a comprehensive curriculum for the current surgical trainees. The primary objective of the study is to determine if acquisition and retention of laparoscopic skills in medical students is superior with multiple training sessions as compared to a single training session of the similar duration.
There is no objective data on the outcome of a daylong workshop as commonly offered to the surgical residents by various institutions. Hence we planned a study with the objectives to determine if a one-day laparoscopic skills workshop enhanced the knowledge and skills of surgical residents in minimal access surgery and did the workshop scores have any correlation with the Direct Observation of Procedural Skills (DOPS) scores for the procedures performed in the real life. The results of our study shall indicate the impact of one-day laparoscopic skills workshop on the knowledge and psychomotor skills of the surgical residents. The skills gained from the workshop shall also be correlated with DOPS scores reflecting the transfer of skills to real life performance.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of virtual simulation training on mastoidectomy dissection performance of otorhinolaryngology trainees, to explore performance assessment using a final-product analysis approach and to explore the role of cognitive load.
The purpose of this study is to establish learning curves of mastoidectomy training in virtual surgical simulation training, to establish the long-term effect of repeat simulation training and to explore the transfer of skills, the roles of an integrated tutor function, self-directed learning and cognitive load.
