Summary

Surgically naive premedical and medical students were trained on two different laparoscopic simulation trainers, then tested on the same vaginal cuff suturing model. Video recordings were collected from the vaginal cuff suturing tasks. These recordings were graded by expert gynecologic surgeons using a laparoscopic skills rubric. Their scores were compared to determine if one of the two laparoscopic trainers better prepared surgically naive students to complete a gynecologic surgical task.
