Minimally invasive thoracic surgery (MITS) has been associated with expedited recovery, decreased morbidity and mortality, and shortened hospital stays when compared with open surgical approaches. 1, 2 Alongside such clear advantages for patient outcomes, minimally invasive procedures are accompanied by different nuances and considerations for surgical education as compared with traditional strategies for training in operative techniques. While some of the basic teaching strategies of open cases may be

Mashup Score: 11The 10 Commandments of Building 3D-Printed Models for Surgical Simulation - Sarah Chen, 2023 - 1 year(s) ago
Medical 3-dimensional (3D) printing refers to the creation of physical anatomical structures derived from volumetric datasets from various imaging modalities. Applications of this technology include advanced visualization and diagnosis, planning and simulation for surgery and interventions, research, education, and patient-physician communication. Documented benefits of medical 3D printing include reduction in intraoperative time as well as postoperative complications, from decreased blood loss and

Mashup Score: 11How to Build a Simulation Center for Surgery - Shokoufeh Cheheili Sobbi, Peyman Sardari Nia, 2023 - 1 year(s) ago
The evolution of work patterns, the paramount importance of patient safety, the increase in the complexity of surgical procedures, and rapid intr oduction of new surgical techniques has forced the development of simulation platforms. Substantiated by evidence in previous research, simulation-based training has emerged as a potent avenue for acquiring surgical expertise. 1 – 5 In lieu of traditional trial-and-error learning, simulation-based training offers a structured pathway to mastering surgical

Mashup Score: 14The 7 Pillars of Self-Made Simulation - Jennifer L. Perri, 2023 - 1 year(s) ago
Simulation in cardiac surgery has had a profound role in resident education, particularly with the advent of mechanical simulators in the 1990s and the launch of the Thora cic Surgery Directors Association Resident (TSDA) Bootcamp in 2008. Results from structured simulation of the TSDA Bootcamp showed that in the experience of 33 trainees with 4 h of structured coronary simulation, objective scores in 8 technical areas significantly improved. 1 In a recent meta-analysis, with 28 studies on adult cardiac

Let me begin by addressing the elephant in the room that no one is discussing: if anyone knowledgeable about our field anywhere in the world were to undergo a major cardiothoracic procedure, their primary concern would not be the country, city, or hospital where they would be operated on but rather who would be performing the procedure. The operator dependency in cardiothoracic surgery explains the variability in the quality of care across cities, hospitals, departments, and even among physicians in the

Mashup Score: 0The 10 Commandments of Rapid Deployment Intuity Valve Implantation - Günther Laufer, 2023 - 1 year(s) ago
More than 55 years ago, Alain Carpentier made his significant contribution to the construction of a bioartificial heart valve prosthesis. 1 Since then, we have seen multiple improvements and refinements in construction design and tissue preservation methods of surgical bioprosthesis. With the advent of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), it became evident that successful and long-lasting anchoring of a bioprosthetic aortic valve substitute can be facilitated by either a self-expanding or

Mashup Score: 0Sutureless Perceval Valve: Size Matters - Adham Elmously, Shubham Lahan, Qasim Al Abri, Moritz C. Wyler von Ballmoos, Mahesh Ramchandani, 2023 - 1 year(s) ago
Appropriate sizing of the Perceval valve (Corcym, London, UK) can pose a challenge, especially for the surgeon who is just embarking on adopting this valve into practice. Correct or “right” sizing of Perceval valves is important if one is to reap the benefits of the superior hemodynamic performance, shorter operative times, and excellent clinical outcomes that this valve offers. 1 – 7 The Perceval valve has a nitinol frame and bovine pericardial leaflets. Nitinol has 2 distinct properties: shape memory
