Laparoscopic skills: comparing two training methods
This study compares two ways of practicing laparoscopic surgery skills: one using a special computer-based system and the other using a classic practice box. It aims to see which method helps residents learn better, and you'll get hands-on experience with real tissue.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be a first-year medical resident at CHUSJ.
- You must volunteer and sign a consent form.
- You must be able to attend both the training session and the follow-up check 15 days later.
- You cannot have had formal laparoscopic training before.
- You must avoid any laparoscopic training activities between signing up and the evaluation.

This trial compares two ways of teaching basic surgical skills to first-year surgery trainees: traditional classroom teaching vs a flipped classroom approach where you watch videos before class and spend class time practicing. The goal is to find out which method helps you learn better.
This study tests if watching standardized educational videos helps OBGYN residents and fellows learn laparoscopic surgery techniques. It aims to improve surgical skills and confidence.
This study tests whether hands-on simulation training helps healthcare teams in the surgical center work better together. If you work in the surgical center and have at least 6 months of experience, you may be able to join and improve your team skills.
This trial tests whether combining interval training with scenario simulation helps medical students learn and remember emergency life support skills better than traditional methods. If you are a medical student in anesthesiology without prior advanced CPR certification, this trial could offer you a new way to practice and improve your skills.
This trial tests two training methods for learning robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (a surgery to remove the prostate using robotic tools). If you are a surgeon taking a specific training course, you may be able to join and help find out which teaching approach works best.
This study tests a new surgery training program for medical students. It aims to help students learn more during their OBGYN rotation.
