Surgical cognitive simulation improves real-world surgical performance: randomized study.

BackgroundDespite the acknowledgement of human factors, application of psychological methods by surgeons to improve surgical performance is sparse. This may reflect the paucity of evidence that would help surgeons to use psychological techniques effectively. There is a need for novel approaches to see how cognitive training might be used to address these challenges.MethodsSurgical trainees were divided into intervention and control groups. The intervention group received training in surgical cognitive simulation (SCS) and was asked to apply the techniques while working in operating theatres. Both groups underwent procedure-based assessment based on the UK and Ireland Intercollegiate Surgical Curriculum Programme (ISCP) before the training and 4 months afterwards. Subjective evaluations of SCS application were obtained from the intervention group participants.ResultsAmong 21 participants in the study, there was a statistically significant improvement in 11 of 16 procedure-based assessment domains (P < 0.050) as well as a statistically significant mean reduction in time to complete the procedure in the intervention group (–15.98 versus –1.14 min; P = 0.024). Subjectively, the intervention group experienced various benefits with SCS, especially in preoperative preparedness, intraoperative focus, and overall performance.ConclusionSCS training has a statistically significant impact in improving surgical performance. Subjective feedback suggests that surgeons are able to apply it in practice. SCS may prove a vital adjunct for skill acquisition in surgical training.

The application of psychological methods, models and theories to the understanding of health in the pregnancy and postpartum period: A review of a BPS–funded seminar series

Health psychology expertise has the potential to help and support pregnant women engage in positive health behaviours. However, this expertise is rarely implemented in standard antenatal care. In a bid to address the lack of health psychology application and expertise in this area, Dr Debbie Smith (The University of Manchester) and Dr Ellinor Olander (City University London) were awarded a research seminar grant from the British Psychological Society (BPS), allowing academics and health professionals interested in the area of maternal health psychology to meet and identify how health psychology can be implemented and developed for this population. This paper will provide a review of three BPS–funded seminars which were held over the course of 2014. The specific view point of two postgraduate students will be presented, outlining theexperiences and benefits of involvement in the group.

A survey of mothers' impressions of seizure precipitants in children with epilepsy.

In a survey of 446 children with epilepsy attending a regional EEG unit, mothers of nearly 90% of the children reported factors that appeared to act as precipitants of their children's seizures. The relationship between these factors and the seizures ranged from consistent triggers to an occasional association. There were no differences in incidence according to sex, site of focus, or type of epilepsy. Associations between environmental events or internal states are so commonly perceived by mothers that routine inquiry would appear warranted. If the event can be corroborated as a seizure precipitant, application of psychological methods of seizure control may be appropriate; if the event cannot be corroborated, needless anxiety about particular situations for a child may be avoided.

The application of psychological methods in evaluation of thought in patients with schizophrenia

This article presents the results of experimental-psychological research of thought evaluation in patients with schizophrenia: 89% of the tasks could detect thought disorders in 86% of subjects. The diagnostic value of the method varies. The most valuable appeared to be the method of object exclusion. The necessity to use the compendium of methods in evaluation of thought in patients with schizophrenia is emphasized.
