Vancouver, Colombie-Britannique—April 26, 2022—PrecisionOS®, l'un des principaux prestataires de formation des chirurgiens, a annoncé aujourd'hui un partenariat stratégique avec ISHA – The Hip Preservation Society, une société internationale de premier plan pour l'éducation et la recherche en chirurgie arthroscopique de la hanche, en préservation de la hanche et en réadaptation de la hanche avec plus de 600 membres internationaux issus de disciplines chirurgicales et de réadaptation. Le partenariat aidera les chirurgiens du monde entier à accéder à la formation en chirurgie de la hanche en réalité virtuelle (RV), améliorant considérablement les résultats pour les patients.
L'engagement de PrecisionOS à produire une simulation chirurgicale pratique de haute qualité et facilement accessible à l'aide de la réalité virtuelle a entraîné un nombre croissant de partenariats avec des sociétés professionnelles de premier plan telles que l'ISHA, ainsi qu'avec de nombreuses institutions médicales et sociétés de dispositifs médicaux. Alors que l'entreprise continue de faire progresser la simulation VR, les institutions médicales reconnaissent la valeur que la VR apporte à l'enseignement chirurgical, réduisant considérablement les coûts et accélérant le temps de formation des résidents en chirurgie, ainsi que le rafraîchissement des compétences des praticiens lorsque de nouvelles techniques et dispositifs chirurgicaux sont introduits.
“We are privileged to partner with ISHA,” says Danny Goel, M.D., surgeon and CEO of PrecisionOS. “With our immersive VR training modules for hip arthroscopy, ISHA will be able to provide advanced training and education for a broader global audience of surgeons who will see improved performance proficiency and reduced complications.”
PrecisionOS’ modules have been scientifically validated, peer reviewed and published in leading medical journals. In fact, published research studies highlight that learning efficiency with PrecisionOS’ training modules has been demonstrated to be as high as 570% while reducing critical errors by 90%. The modules also provide a Precision Score™, une évaluation personnalisée et validée qui a démontré dans les études comment les stagiaires se comporteront lors d'interventions chirurgicales réelles.
“PrecisionOS offers the premier VR educational software, which dramatically impacts training and education,” says Tony Andrade, MB BS, FRCS and immediate past-president, ISHA. “We are excited to partner with such an industry leader in VR hip arthroscopy. Surgeons are increasingly accepting and using VR and the PrecisionOS platform offers a real-life, completely immersive experience that permits error in trial and provides real world interactivity. It also allows multiple surgeons, even in different geographic locations, to be trained at the same time.”
The PrecisionOS training modules encourage trial and error and permit individual decision making, allowing the user to try different approaches to the procedure. Rather than simply showing trainees how to do a procedure, and having them repeat it over and over, PrecisionOS modules encourage learners to first attempt the procedure on the basis of their classroom or practice experience – a critical differentiation from competitive VR solutions. The platform then provides technical and performance feedback until the procedure has been done correctly and the learner feels confident about performing the procedure on a live patient.
Current ISHA president, Professor Allston Stubbs, MD, MBA, commented, “The ultimate beneficiary of this 21St century VR technology is the hip preservation patient who will see lower surgical complications and superior surgical outcomes from surgeons experienced in VR training. ISHA is delighted to strategically align its educational mission with PrecisionOS to deliver innovation that promotes mentorship, constructive feedback, and real-time learning.”
PrecisionOS présentera la réalité virtuelle à l'ESSKA du 27 au 29 avril 2022 à Paris et avec l'ISHA lors de sa réunion scientifique annuelle du 13 au 15 octobre 2022 à Glasgow, en Écosse.
