简要总结
This study aims to improve basic laparoscopic and thoracoscopic skills in thoracic surgery residents and rotating surgical residents through a structured simulation-based training program. Participants will complete hands-on practice sessions using box trainers, artificial models, and bovine tissues in a controlled, non-patient setting.
Before and after the training, participants will complete self-assessment surveys and a standardized technical skills evaluation (OSATS). The study will compare these results to measure changes in technical performance, confidence, and learning needs. No real patients, live animals, or clinical procedures are involved, and there are no expected medical risks.
The goal of this study is to determine whether structured simulation training is effective, practical, and acceptable for surgical education, and whether it can support safer transition to real operating room experience in the future.

研究组 & 干预措施
Structured Simulation Training
Participants will undergo a standardized simulation-based training program designed to develop laparoscopic and thoracoscopic technical skills. Training includes camera navigation, tissue dissection, stapling, and suturing tasks performed on box trainers, artificial models, and bovine tissues in a controlled laboratory setting. All participants complete baseline (pre-training) and post-training evaluations using OSATS scoring, self-assessment surveys, and performance timing. No clinical procedures, live animals, or patient interactions occur during the study.
干预措施: Structured Simulation-Based Surgical Training (Behavioral)
结局指标
主要结局
Change in Total OSATS Score
时间窗: Baseline (pre-training) and immediately after completion of the training program (within 1 week)
Technical skill performance will be assessed using the Objective Structured Assessment of Technical Skills (OSATS), consisting of a global rating scale and task-specific checklist (total score range 0-35). Each participant will complete the same standardized tasks before and after the simulation training. The primary outcome is the within-subject change (post-training minus pre-training) in total OSATS score.
