- Johnathan Lex, MD, Universidade de Toronto, Divisão de Cirurgia Ortopédica
- Micah Nieboer, MD, Clínica Mayo, Faculdade de Medicina e Ciências
- Jayd Lukenchuk, MD, Universidade de Calgary Cummings School of Medicine
Members of the Resident Advisory Board are enthusiastic about the opportunity to contribute to the development of Virtual Reality (VR) and surgical education. “I am truly excited to be part of the PrecisionOS Resident Advisory Board,” states Dr. Liana Tedesco, a surgical resident at Columbia University, Irving Medical Center. “As a resident, I have seen where the gaps are and feel VR technology can help fill them. I cannot wait to work with the team on the forefront of new surgical education tools.”
The PrecisionOS simulation offers tailored surgical learning modules supported by learning science and validated in high profile medical journals. A research study in Rede JAMA aberta1 encontraram uma redução de quase 50% em erros cirúrgicos quando os cirurgiões treinaram com o PrecisionOS. Os pesquisadores também concluíram que o treinamento do PrecisionOS reduziu a curva de aprendizado em até 50 casos, substituiu quase uma hora do tempo cirúrgico real e é pelo menos 34 vezes mais barato do que os métodos de aprendizado tradicionais.
Surgical resident at Duke University School of Medicine, Dr. Jay Levin considers PrecisionOS to be “at the forefront of virtual reality technology in orthopaedic surgery education,” and asserts that its technology “allows wholesome preparation for complex procedures, from relevant anatomy to the step-by-step, implant-specific techniques required to obtain successful patient outcomes. I am particularly excited to collaborate with PrecisionOS to aid the growth of virtual reality in surgical education as an everyday tool for case preparation and orthopedic knowledge acquisition.”
