VANCOUVER, Colúmbia Britânica—April 26, 2022—PrecisionOS®, fornecedora líder de educação para cirurgiões, anunciou hoje uma parceria estratégica com ISHA – The Hip Preservation Society, uma importante sociedade internacional para educação e pesquisa em cirurgia artroscópica do quadril, preservação do quadril e reabilitação do quadril com mais de 600 membros internacionais de disciplinas cirúrgicas e de reabilitação. A parceria ajudará cirurgiões em todo o mundo a obter acesso ao treinamento em cirurgia de quadril em realidade virtual (VR), melhorando consideravelmente os resultados para os pacientes.
O compromisso que o PrecisionOS fez para produzir simulação cirúrgica prática de alta qualidade e prontamente acessível usando VR resultou em um número crescente de parcerias com as principais sociedades profissionais, como a ISHA, bem como várias instituições médicas e empresas de dispositivos médicos. À medida que a empresa continua avançando na simulação de RV, as instituições médicas estão reconhecendo o valor que a RV traz para a educação cirúrgica, reduzindo consideravelmente os custos e acelerando o tempo de treinamento para residentes cirúrgicos, além de atualizar as habilidades do profissional quando novas técnicas e dispositivos cirúrgicos são introduzidos.
“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™, uma avaliação personalizada e validada que demonstrou nos estudos como os treinandos se comportarão durante procedimentos cirúrgicos reais.
“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.”
O PrecisionOS apresentará VR na ESSKA de 27 a 29 de abril de 2022 em Paris e com a ISHA em sua Reunião Científica Anual de 13 a 15 de outubro de 2022 em Glasgow, Escócia.
