I had awards, published a few papers, passed my exams and had a logbook full of cases I had \u201cdone\u201d. I realized that there were many procedures I only partially performed or realized I did many of the non-critical steps of the case.&nbsp; But when I stepped into the OR on my own, it hit me like a tonne of bricks. There were plenty of cases I didn\u2019t do, an assist who wanted me to tell them what to do and a patient who entrusted me with their care. &nbsp;Those 5 years in residency flew by and it may not have fully prepared me for the real world. That was 2003.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Residency today? It\u2019s a whole new ballgame. Work hour restrictions, more complex cases, less autonomy in the OR and the move to high-efficiency surgery centers have created challenges I didn\u2019t have to face. And yet, the pressure to perform hasn\u2019t eased. In fact, it\u2019s harder now to get the experience you need in the time you have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, here\u2019s the question: how do you maximize your training when the odds feel stacked against you? The answer might be that one needs a VR strategy. Here\u2019s why it could change everything for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.precisionostech.com\/pt\/medical-institutions\/\">orthopedic residents and their training<\/a> experi\u00eancia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. You Only Get One Shot in the OR<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The OR is not the place to \u201cfigure it out.\u201d Mistakes aren\u2019t tolerated, and you rarely get a chance to retry. Picture this: the attending hands you an instrument. You either know how to use it, or you don\u2019t. And if you don\u2019t, there\u2019s no time for fiddling or learning on the spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.precisionostech.com\/pt\/vr-training\/\">where VR shines<\/a>. You can walk through the steps, handle the instruments, and make sure your muscle memory kicks in when it matters most. When I first held an arthroscope, I couldn\u2019t triangulate quickly (milliseconds), that was not only frustrating for me, but my attending and impacted the case. Being able to practice those skills on my own with VR would have allowed me to step into the OR with the skills to progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. You\u2019re Working With Less Time<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Work hour restrictions for training were necessary and important (some may disagree) but that is our world today. If I started work at 6am on Monday, I wouldn\u2019t go home until Tuesday night at 6PM. Those days are over. I remember falling asleep once while I was dictating a note I was so tired. To preserve mental and physical health, the restrictions have (by my calculation) removed approximately 5,000 clinical hours from residency. That\u2019s equivalent to losing an entire year of hands-on experience. And while residencies have adjusted, it doesn\u2019t change the fact that one is being asked to learn what used to be perhaps six years of skills (i.e.. a 5 year residency with insane hours) in what now may be four years stretched into five.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, how do you fill the gap? You can\u2019t control how many cases you\u2019ll get, but you can control how prepared you are for every single one of them. Given one can\u2019t increase their clinical hours, the only option is to maximize the time you do have. With <a href=\"https:\/\/www.precisionostech.com\/pt\/vr-training\/\">VR,<\/a> you\u2019re not waiting for opportunities to land\u2014you\u2019re creating them for yourself and setting yourself up to maximize your time in the OR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Surgeons Are Busier Than Ever<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The OR today is about efficiency. It certainly was as well when I was a resident, but this seems like a whole new world. Surgeons are juggling packed caseloads and administrative work, and teaching moments can feel rushed or secondary. What\u2019s even worse is imagine that every year you are a practicing surgeon, the same case you did last year, is being reimbursed less the year after? I\u2019ve been in cases where the attending wanted to teach but had a long list of cases to get through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don\u2019t have to wait for those rare teaching moments. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.precisionostech.com\/pt\/vr-training\/\">RV<\/a> allows you to practice skills, build your clinical reasoning, and develop your confidence\u2014without slowing anyone down in the OR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. The ASC Model<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ambulatory Surgery Centers are here and efficient. I never heard the word \u201chyper&nbsp; throughput\u201d as a resident. That efficiency comes at a cost. Bread-and-butter cases including many under hip, shoulder, knee, spine, foot and ankle, i.e. the ones you need to master, are now being done with an accelerated efficiency in ASCs. Twelve to twenty cases in a day make it challenging to teach. I see that in my own practice now and it\u2019s tough to teach in those moments. Teaching in an ASC is analogous to changing the tires on a moving car or worse, think of an F1 pitstop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.precisionostech.com\/pt\/vr-training\/\">VR bridges that gap<\/a>. It\u2019s your chance to get hands-on practice in a low-pressure environment, preparing you for the high-efficiency settings you\u2019ll face both as a resident, fellow and ultimately an attending surgeon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5. Complex Cases Are the New Normal<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As ASC\u2019s take on the common cases, the cases left in hospitals are no longer routine\u2014they\u2019re complex, high-risk, and often require advanced skills. Revision surgery is not decreasing (in general). &nbsp;If you\u2019re not ready for those, or are struggling with the basics, those cases are not only hard to understand, but it\u2019s also challenging to contribute meaningfully and extract valuable learning. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.precisionostech.com\/pt\/vr-training\/\">RV<\/a> gives you the chance to build a solid foundation of basic skills so you can extract more from the complex ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>6. Mistakes Belong in Practice, Not in the OR<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We all know mistakes are a crucial part of learning, but the risk of performing them in the OR is too great (and frankly not allowed). &nbsp;Think back to when you did something \u201cwrong\u201d in the OR as a resident (I can). &nbsp;It never ends well, and you wish you could go back. &nbsp;VR gives you that space. Make the mistakes, learn from them, and go back to practice again and again until you get it right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>7. Don\u2019t Rely on Fellowship to Fix This<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A lot of people (including myself) thought fellowship will fill in the gaps, but here\u2019s the truth: fellowships are just as fast paced as residency (maybe even faster) and the expectation is that you already have a solid foundation. Your residency is the foundation, and fellowship is like putting gas on your technical skills. It\u2019s challenging if you are catching up and can impact your experience when one should be mastering subspecialty skills. Maximizing your time as a resident can allow one to get ahead now, so you can thrive later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>8. Master Your Anatomy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a big one. From medical school, anatomy has become less and less of a priority (at least that\u2019s what I\u2019ve seen). Cadavers are more expensive and it\u2019s a focus only in year 1. As a surgeon, these are the A,B,Cs of surgery. The number one foundation of a career in orthopedics. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.meta.com\/en-gb\/experiences\/bodyworks\/2768642366575010\/\">Knowing anatomy<\/a> isn\u2019t just about memorizing the innervation of muscles\u2014it\u2019s about truly understanding how structures relate to each other in 3D. When you know the anatomy, you\u2019re not second-guessing yourself in the OR. You\u2019re confident, precise, and focused and it impacts where you put retractors and make incisions. &nbsp;Imagine having your own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.meta.com\/en-gb\/experiences\/bodyworks\/2768642366575010\/\">virtual 3D cadaver<\/a>? That\u2019s possible now with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.precisionostech.com\/pt\/vr-training\/\">RV<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>9. Trust Is Earned, Not Given<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a big one. Why is the attending going to pass me the knife? Well, they need to trust that I\u2019m ready. Performing a physical skill should be preceded by practicing a physical skill. The analogy of shooting free throws before the game is a very akin to this. Imagine walking into a hip scope case having practiced hip arthroscopy the night before or the morning of? Same thing for a knee replacement, shoulder or placing in pedicle screws. &nbsp;Maybe even a fracture? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.precisionostech.com\/pt\/vr-training\/\">RV<\/a> affords one to do unlimited reps, practice triangulation, take 100s of C-arm images with no risk and hone in on the principles you need to prove yourself. When you\u2019re confident, they\u2019ll be confident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>10. Think Differently About Your Career\u2014Because the System Demands It<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The race is no longer about running 26.2 miles on a clear course (in fact it never has been). Today however, there are clear and visible obstacles \u2014mud pits, walls to climb, and unpredictable turns. It\u2019s important to adjust and thrive in the new environment<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s exactly where we are in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.precisionostech.com\/pt\/medical-institutions\/\">orthopedic residency training<\/a> (I hope someone will disagree). &nbsp;The educational environment has changed. Work hour restrictions, high-efficiency surgery centers, lack of independent surgery and volume of complex cases have rewritten the rulebook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Preparation and Trust: Lessons From My Mentor<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of my mentors once told me during a case, \u201cDanny, I\u2019ll be the best surgical assist you\u2019ll ever have.\u201d And you know what? They were right. But looking back, I realize that probably wasn\u2019t great for my learning. I didn\u2019t need them to be the best\u2014I needed them to let me drive the bus. I needed to struggle, to make decisions, and to build my independence. But the system didn\u2019t allow for that kind of freedom (in fact it never will as there is too much at stake). So, while I missed out on some critical opportunities to grow, it\u2019s the system we live in for patient safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That lesson has stuck with me ever since. It\u2019s a reminder that preparation and trust go hand in hand. When you\u2019re prepared, people trust you to step up. And when you step up, you take control\u2014not just of your training, but of your career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The System Has Changed, and So Must You<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Residency isn\u2019t what it used to be and it\u2019s not just a phase\u2014it\u2019s the foundation of your career but the hours are fewer, the OR time is more competitive, and the cases are more complex. But at the end of the day, &nbsp;this is your career, and I realized that no one is going to hand me the skills or the confidence to succeed in the OR. One must take ownership of one\u2019s training and adapt to this new environment. That means thinking differently, practicing smarter, and finding ways to prepare yourself outside of the OR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This isn\u2019t just about surviving residency\u2014it\u2019s about building the foundation for the surgeon you\u2019ll become. When you take control of your learning, you don\u2019t just sleep better at night\u2014when it\u2019s all said and done and you are in your own OR, your team and importantly your patients will need you to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&#8211;<\/strong>Don\u2019t leave your future to chance\u2014<a href=\"https:\/\/www.precisionostech.com\/pt\/medical-institutions\/\">Join the hundreds of residents<\/a> who are investing in themselves, their skills, and ultimately the care they will provide for their patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Dr. Goel<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/danny-goel-md-aa7b62a4\/\">Dr. Danny Goel<\/a>, is an orthopedic surgeon specializing in shoulder procedures and the CEO of PrecisionOS, a Vancouver-based company pioneering virtual reality solutions for surgical training.
