VR, Camera training and instrument handling
Working in a OR takes a lot of responsibilities.
We understand how difficult it can be to manage a range of tasks in a hectic environment where the stakes are high. Therefore we have developed Simendo VR which helps trainees to obtain important skills, such laparoscopic camera training and instrument handling.
During the VR training sessions, the trainee has to complete laparoscopic skills exercises while being confronted with distractions such as the radio, operating room sounds, talking people, ringing phones, and various alarms from operating room equipment. The trainee learns to recognize the equipment and configure important setting of the insufflator and diathermy.
Additionally, they are asked to solve problems, for example, recognizing excessive pressure from the
insufflator, and are tested on whether they are familiar with the correct settings. This module
improves, among other things, the ability to perform under pressure and distractions in the operating
room.
