Neurosurgery Resident Rookie Camp
It was a small study and the results were foundational showing our learning method worked where “Participants showed significant overall improvement in total score (p < 0.0005), number of errors (p = 0.019) and time saved (p < 0.0005), over three testing sessions when using the PeriopSim™ Instrument Trainer. Participants demonstrated further performance-trained improvements when using PeriopSim™ Burr Hole Surgery."
Effectiveness of Generalized Education Model
Immediate retention tests demonstrated a response time advantage for real-world training compared to simulation training, suggesting a more efficient nurse-surgeon interaction could result. Interestingly, however, this effect disappeared at test points one-week later, suggesting that tablet-based training may be less susceptible to performance decline than real-world training.
100 Nurses Research Study
The results speak for themselves, 93 nurses participated in the study and “Group A that received tablet-based simulation, were 23% quicker in identifying real instruments and did so with better accuracy 93.2% vs 80.6% than group B.
