Department of Ophthalmology,Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing 100053, ChinaAIM: To discuss the application effect of surgical simulator to improve the microsurgical skills in junior ophthalmologist.
METHODS:Lecture teaching, training in surgical simulator and operation in animal eyes were received in all these ophthalmologists. Results of the ability of operation in cataract surgery after this training were analyzed.
RESULTS: After taught theory, students completed cataract surgical procedures on simulator and the mean test score was 75.91±6.53 points. After trained on simulator repeatedly, the mean test score was 85.57±4.64 points. There was statistically significant difference(P<0.01). During the third stage of practicing on animal eyes, the score was 89.77±7.61 points, there was statistically significant difference compared with former two stages(P<0.05).
CONCLUSION: Comprehensive training can improve microsurgical skills of junior ophthalmologist, but the long effect need to be observed.
