No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study examines in a prospective, randomized and blinded study design the impact of a proficiency based training methodology on the acquisition of arthroscopic surgical skills employing both a dry shoulder simulator model, and cadaver specimens for the demonstration of surgical skill proficiency.

Conditions

  • Study Focus: Simulation and Proficiency Based Training

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Group B - Simulation Training

Group B resident training includes the use of a dry model shoulder simulator for practicing the steps and avoiding the errors of an arthroscopic Bankart repair

BEHAVIORAL

Group C - Proficiency Based Progression

Group C - Proficiency Based Progression Group C residents must test to proficiency on the cognitive material contained in the orientation video, demonstrate arthroscopic knot tying proficiency to a pre-determined benchmark, and perform an arthroscopic Bankart repair on a dry shoulder simulator model to a pre-determined benchmark in order to progress in the training exercise
