VANCOUVER, British Columbia—February 8, 2022—PrecisionOS’ immersive virtual reality (VR) platform has achieved all five industry benchmarks cited by simulation experts for validation of training through multiple, independent, randomized controlled trials published in major medical journals.
La validación, tal como la definen los expertos en simulación médica, determina el grado en que la simulación es representativa del escenario del mundo real y logra el propósito previsto. Los puntos de referencia estándar publicados por la industria incluyen la demostración de competencia y dominio en la validez aparente, de contenido, constructiva, concurrente y de transferencia.
“The academic rigor surrounding the PrecisionOS platform is truly impressive,” says Dr. Richard Satava, Professor Emeritus of Surgery at the University of Washington and an early pioneer in developing simulation standards. Satava is the senior consultant to the American College of Surgeons-Accredited Educational Institutes (ACS-AEI).
Se han publicado en revistas médicas más de 15 artículos sobre la capacitación de PrecisionOS que destacan la eficiencia del aprendizaje, el aumento del conocimiento y la mejora de las habilidades técnicas en todos los tipos de usuarios y la reducción constante de errores a medida que las prácticas del aprendiz JBJS (Am), JAMA, Injury, JAAOS, JSS, AAOS Now, HMPI, Canadian Journal of Surgery, JSES International, Archives of Orthopedics and Trauma Surgery, Journal of Surgical Research, Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery (AOTS) y Artroscopia Medicina Deportiva y Rehabilitación. También se ha publicado un caso clínico de cómo un residente, tras realizar prácticas en un módulo de formación de la empresa, consiguió realizar una intervención quirúrgica poco habitual, mejorando directamente la atención al paciente.
Research studies involving the PrecisionOS platform performed at medical institutions in North America and Europe have won numerous awards, including a Top 10 Abstract by the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) and runner up for top paper at the world’s largest simulation gathering, the Interservice/Industry Training, Simulation and Education Conference (I/ITSEC). Other honors include the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada top presentation award and an inaugural CSES Research Grant from the Canadian Orthopedic Association.
PrecisionOS based research has been accepted and presented at notable conferences, including the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES), the International Conference on Residency Education (ICRE), the American College of Surgeons, the Royal Society of Medicine, Cambridge Trauma and Orthopedic Club, Global Spine Congress, Orthopedic Summit (OSET), the Royal College Simulation Summit, Société Internationale de Chirurgie Orthopédique et de Traumatologie (SICOT), the British Elbow and Shoulder Society (BESS), the Orthopedic Research Society (ORS) and the largest orthopedic conference in the world, the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS).
In 2020, PrecisionOS was selected from among 1,500 education tech companies as the gold winner for the EdTech Awards at Reimagine Education, which runs the world’s largest training education competition.
A chosen partner for a growing number of residency and fellowship programs, professional societies and medical device companies seeking evidence-based surgical education, the company’s modules offer a proprietary and validated Precision Score™ which has been shown to have a high correlation to surgeon performance.
“We are proud of what we’ve accomplished, but we have significantly more work to do to strengthen this claim even further,” says Danny Goel, M.D., surgeon and CEO, PrecisionOS. “The studies in progress are even more exciting, as we intend to pioneer surgical education training around the world.”
