Recent advancements in virtual reality graphics and models have allowed virtual reality simulators to be incorporated into a variety of endoscopic training programmes. Use of virtual reality simulators in training programmes is thought to improve skill acquisition amongst trainees which is reflected in improved patient comfort and safety. Several studies have already been carried out to ascertain the impact that usage of virtual reality simulators may have upon trainee learning curves and how this may translate to patient comfort. This article reviews the available literature in this area of medical education which is particularly relevant to all parties involved in endoscopy training and curriculum development. Assessment of the available evidence for an optimal exposure time with virtual reality simulators and the long-term benefits of their use are also discussed.
虚拟现实图形和模型的最新进展使虚拟现实模拟器能够融入各种内镜培训项目。培训项目中使用虚拟现实模拟器被认为可以提高学员的技能掌握程度,这体现在患者舒适度和安全性的提高上。已经开展了多项研究,以确定使用虚拟现实模拟器对学员学习曲线的影响以及这如何转化为患者舒适度。本文回顾了医学教育这一领域的现有文献,这些文献与参与内镜培训和课程开发的所有各方特别相关。还讨论了关于虚拟现实模拟器最佳暴露时间的现有证据评估及其长期使用效益。
