Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
<p>Primary study parameter is the magnitude of knee joint stressing force. The<br /><br>expected end point is the analysis of the magnitude and variation of the joint<br /><br>stressing forces and the comparison with a theoretical maximum stressing force<br /><br>to set up a guideline for safe stressing. These safety levels will be used to<br /><br>implement force feedback in the arthroscopic simulators. As a result, residents<br /><br>will experience enhanced training, start their first arthroscopy with a higher<br /><br>competency level, and potentially shorten their learning curve with repeated<br /><br>simulator training. Eventually, this contributes to an increase of patient<br /><br>safety and decrease of surgical errors.</p><br>
