Outline of Final Research Achievements

Time-consuming training programme and difficulty of inducing interest in surgical procedures are reported to be major causes for declining application for surgery programmes by resident physicians. In this study with medical students, effectiveness of high-resolution head camera system in improvement of learning curve of surgical procedure and satisfaction with the clinical education were analysed.
Head camera system significantly improved learning curve of suturing, and it was suggested that reading textbooks followed by observing with head camera system was most effective. Head camera system also improved satisfaction of the medical students with the clinical education of cardiovascular surgery.
