Abstract
Simulation practice is known to be effective in anesthesiology education. In our simulation practice of general anesthesia for open cholecystectomy at the Tohoku University simulation center, we projected a surgical video onto a mannequin's abdomen. In this observational study, we investigated whether video-linked simulation practice improved students' performance. We retrospectively compared the general anesthesia simulation practice scores of fifth-year medical students in a video-linked or conventional group. In the simulation practice, we evaluated the performance of each group in three sections: perioperative analgesia, intraoperative bleeding, and arrhythmia caused by abdominal irrigation. The primary endpoint was the total score of the simulation practice. The secondary endpoints were their scores on each section. We also investigated the amount of bleeding that caused an initial action and the amount of bleeding when they began to transfuse. The video group had significantly higher total scores than the conventional group (7.5 [5-10] vs. 5.5 [4-8], p = 0.00956). For the perioperative analgesia and arrhythmia sections, students in the video group responded appropriately to surgical pain. In the intraoperative bleeding section, students in both groups scored similarly. The amount of bleeding that caused initial action was significantly lower in the video group (200 mL [200-300]) than in the conventional group (400 mL [200-500]) (p = 0.00056).Simulation practice with surgical video projection improved student performance. By projecting surgical videos, students could practice in a more realistic environment similar to an actual case.
期刊介绍:
Our mission is to publish peer-reviewed papers in all branches of medical sciences including basic medicine, social medicine, clinical medicine, nursing sciences and disaster-prevention science, and to present new information of exceptional novelty, importance and interest to a broad readership of the TJEM.
The TJEM is open to original articles in all branches of medical sciences from authors throughout the world. The TJEM also covers the fields of disaster-prevention science, including earthquake archeology. Case reports, which advance significantly our knowledge on medical sciences or practice, are also accepted. Review articles, Letters to the Editor, Commentary, and News and Views will also be considered. In particular, the TJEM welcomes full papers requiring prompt publication.
