简要总结
This is research in which students are queried by questionnaires on their satisfaction with and experience with certain educational practices (use of a camera image projecting during a live surgery) or with pre-recorded video. As data collection only involves survey data collection and satisfaction with an educational experience, and randomization/intervention is only involving use of one type of educational method versus another .
详细描述
As better training in vaginal surgery is a priority of gynecologic safety and quality organizations, optimizing learner satisfaction with vaginal surgery learning experiences is of paramount importance. Our purpose was to investigate if this unique camera system may have advantages in learner satisfaction both in the operating room and in video learning settings, therefore increasing the interest of the learner pool in vaginal surgery and optimizing their experience. This study has two main, non-dependent aims:
Aim 1: The investigators aim to perform a randomized, controlled trial that compares a vaginally-mounted high-definition telescopic camera system (VITOM®) that can project live images in the operating room during vaginal surgery to traditional learner surgery observation practices, with the primary outcome of learner satisfaction as measured by validated adult learner satisfaction measures.
Aim 2: The investigators aim to investigate in a randomized, controlled trial whether learners watching videos acquired with the VITOM® camera feel the video is more learner-friendly and optimal that videos acquired with traditional, tripod-mounted standard definition cameras.

入选标准
- •Adult learners (age >=18 years)
- •Residents and medical students rotating in the field of gynecology at the University of Louisville and within the group of learners who are available to observe and participate in surgeries with the Urogynecologic team at any of the study sites.
排除标准
- •Adult learners will be excluded if they have participated in the study prior, are performing a role within the surgery that precludes their participating in one of the study arms.
- •If it is deemed by the surgical team that participation of the learner in the study or filming of the surgery would compromise the quality of surgery or patient safety in any manner.
