Overview

Brief Summary

Simulation based training is a standard part of surgical training. Over the years virtual reality simulator have been more and more integrated into the surgical curriculum for surgical novices.

Evidence shows that practicing using proficiency-based training programs significantly reduces the operation time and complication rates for during intial operations for young doctors.

The aim of this trial is to examine if skills obtained on a newer software version is transferable to the original software.
