Outline of Final Research Achievements

Regarding the training of endoscopic surgery, we usually use animal laboratory training as intermediate task between simulation training of basic technique and on-the-job training during actual operation, while there are many problems in the animal laboratory training as well known.
In this study, we aimed to create new tasks to replace animal trainings. We developed the perivascular dissection program and the intestinal anastomosis program as the integrated tasks combining basic procedures. We created various phantoms of intestinal tract and box trainers. We also used VR module for the perivascular dissection program. Evaluation of both program was based on a checklist of a supervising doctor and a trainee and the results were fed back to the trainee in the briefing. We actually perform these programs in our simulation center, improving the systems.
