Current theories of skill learning suggest that novices learn optimally in a simplified environment. This information can be incorporated in simulator designs. Our purpose was to assess whether basic visuospatial training is beneficial for performance on an arthroscopy model. One group of trainees practiced three visuomotor tasks while the other group was not given this opportunity. Both groups then performed three different surgical tasks on a simulated arthroscopy model. Practice with the visuomotor tasks enhanced performance on two of the tasks on the arthroscopy model. The basic navigational skills learned through practice transferred to the performance of arthroscopic surgery tasks and these skills should be included in the design of a comprehensive arthroscopy simulator.
当前的技能学习理论表明，新手在简化环境中学习效果最佳。这一信息可融入模拟器设计中。我们的目的是评估基础视觉空间训练是否有助于提高关节镜模型操作的表现。一组学员练习了三项视觉运动任务，而另一组没有得到这样的机会。然后两组学员都在模拟关节镜模型上执行三项不同的手术任务。视觉运动任务的练习提高了关节镜模型上两项任务的表现。通过练习学到的基础导航技能可迁移至关节镜手术任务的操作中，这些技能应纳入综合关节镜模拟器的设计中。
