Complex Skill Learning in VR – new opportunity for surgery teams

To perform a procedure well and guarantee the best patient outcome requires the entire OR team to be well trained and perfectly choreographed. Consider a complex operation with a big instrumentarium like total knee arthroplasty surgery. With over 240 pieces of surgical equipment, professionals need training to correctly assemble instruments at the appropriate time.

Training for such a scenario is a challenge. At work, scrub nurses are not often given the opportunity to gain the knowhow required to execute their role during the operation. They need an accessible, flexible solution.

Orthopaedic Proceedings has published an abstracts of the study which was performed by Imperial College London on our software Pixrealities^TM Regarding scrub nurse VR training in complex revision for Total Knee Arthroplasty rTKA.
