Abstract

Virtual Reality has emerged as a potential method to both assess surgeon skill level and improve surgical performance. The Minimally Invasive Surgical Trainer-Virtual Reality (MIST-VR) laparoscopic trainer has been validated as a method to improve operating room (OR) performance in gallbladder bed dissection among general surgery residents, yet little work has been done among gynecologic surgeons. The purpose of this study was to assess the use of the MIST-VR trainer for proficiency-based laparoscopic skills training among surgeons and trainees not previously exposed to virtual laparoscopic simulators.
