Subclaims¶

q3 i? There was no difference between expert and non-expert feedback in all outcomes assessed other than error scores, which were lower with expert feedback only when using VIST error metrics (p=0.009). → Trehan Abhishek 2015

Evidence¶

Trehan Abhishek 2015¶

Trehan Abhishek, Barnett-Vanes Ashton, Carty Matthew J, McCulloch Peter, Maruthappu Mahiben. (2015). The impact of feedback of intraoperative technical performance in surgery: a systematic review. BMJ Open. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4480038/

q3 · i? · review · r2

Three-armed RCT comparing expert (consultant surgeons) versus non-expert (inexperienced surgical trainees) instructor feedback versus no feedback in simulated renal artery angioplasty. No difference between expert and non-expert feedback on outcomes other than VIST error metrics.

"There was no difference to be found between expert and non-expert feedback in all outcomes assessed other than error scores, which were lower when using the Vascular Interventional Surgical Trainer (VIST) error metrics and scoring during the operation (p=0.009)"
