q3 · i? · review · r2

Review of 13 studies measuring performance time at posttest evaluation, with "thirteen studies reported statistically significant improvement."

"Of the 13 (62%) studies that assessed whether the training intervention resulted in the improvement of performance time, thirteen studies reported statistically significant improvement."

Related Claims¶

• A simulation-based mastery-learning curriculum using the Guildford MATTU TEP model produced faster TEP repair, higher GOALS scores and fewer complications than standard apprenticeship training — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
• A moulded rubber TEP box trainer programme produced higher composite operative scores (P = 0.01) and suggested transfer of skills to real operations — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
• Simulation-based training translates laparoscopic surgical skills to the operating room — a broader claim this one bears on
• Virtual reality training reduces intraoperative error counts compared with no additional training in laparoscopic cholecystectomy — related
