A Systematic Review of Simulation-Based Training in Neurosurgery, Part 2: Spinal and Pediatric Surgery, Neurointerventional Radiology, and Nontechnical Skills
2020, World NeurosurgeryCitation Excerpt :Within pediatric neurosurgery, factors such as reduced working space, smaller field of vision, delicate tissue, finer movements, and limited caseload must also be considered. The significant risks of spinal neurosurgery coupled with litigation have led to significant emphasis on minimizing harm to patients during the transition from novice to expert.3 In addition, the established role of nontechnical skills (NTS) in improving operative outcomes has led to increased calls for training of these skills, with simulation-based training proving an effective modality.
Principles and Fundamentals of Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery
2018, World NeurosurgeryCitation Excerpt :The systematic implementation of a simulation curriculum in neurosurgery or orthopedic training programs has been proven to be feasible and has a positive impact on trainees of all levels.20,21 A few academic centers have focused on the role of highly realistic spine surgery simulation models to train spine surgeons.20,22-26 Simulation training, although it has a lower cost than cadaveric training ($1000 vs. $3900), is not a substitute for operating room experience, but it may decrease the time teaching intraoperatively and reduce the morbidity secondary to resident surgical errors.
