Role of Procedural Videos in Teaching the Surgery Residents

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

A randomized controlled trial was conducted at Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) Islamabad after approval from the Institutional ethics review board. Fifty-four surgical residents in training and who have completed at least 3 months of surgical training were enrolled in the study. After the residents had performed the procedure initially, 27 were made to watch the procedural videos and learn the steps of the procedure while those of the other group did not watch the videos. Participants of both the groups were made to perform the procedure. GARS (global assessment rating score) was calculated for each individual during their second procedure. All procedures were performed under the supervision of a consultant surgeon who was blinded about the groups and make assessment of the GARS (global assessment rating score).

Clinical Trial Description

This study was conducted in 2 phases. In Phase-I just after the enrollment, all the residents performed the procedure from which initial GARS (global assessment rating score) assessment was made. Phase-I was followed by allocation into the groups i.e., study and control groups. In phase-2, a video of surgical procedure was obtained through internet. After all residents have done the procedure initially, 27 participants of the study group were made to watch the videos and learn the steps of procedure while those of the other group did not watch the videos. Participants of both the groups were made to perform the procedure again. GARS (global assessment rating score) was calculated for each individual in their second procedure which included following scores: 1. Respect for tissue 2. Time and motion 3. Instrument Handling 4. Depth perception 5. Bimanual Dexterity All elements scored between 1-5 with a total of 25 score. All procedures were performed under the supervision of a consultant surgeon who was blinded about the groups and make assessment according to the GARS (global assessment rating score). ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
