Background: Arthroscopic simulation has rapidly evolved recently with the introduction of
higher-fidelity simulation models, such as virtual reality simulators, which provide trainees …

Background: Following the introduction of worktime regulations across the world along with
existing concerns over the nonuniform nature of the traditional apprenticeship model, an …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to investigate the use and validity of virtual reality
modules as part of the educational approach to mastering arthroscopy in a safe environment …

Arthroscopy uses a completely different skill set compared with open orthopedic surgery.
Hitherto, arthroscopy had not been given enough emphasis in the core orthopedic curricula …

Aim of this study is to introduce, evaluate, and propose a basic arthroscopy training course
with interactive methods as using bovine knees, joint models but mainly focusing on …

Purpose: Arthroscopic skills training outside the operative room may decrease risks and
errors by trainee surgeons. There is a need of simple objective method for evaluating …

Purpose Skilful arthroscopy requires an aboveaverage level of manual dexterity. It is evident
that particular motor skills can be learned and trained before arthroscopic training. The aim …

Purpose To evaluate correlations between objective performances measured by a new
online arthroscopic skills acquisition tool (ASAT, in which “shape match” with inverted …

Objectives The aim of this prospective study is to evaluate the impact of the simulation
training program in learning duration of arthroscopic motor skills. Furthermore, we …

Background Orthopaedic training programs are incorporating arthroscopic simulations into
their residency curricula. There is a need for a physical shoulder simulator that …
