Operative medicine needs fine manual skills; therefore, several educational training programs focus on skill development as well. Related to sports sciences, various sport types are also dependent on fine motor skills. We hypothesized that an adequate sport training program may contribute to the development of medical students' manual dexterity. We conducted objectively tests using high-fidelity medical simulators. Volunteer medical students were delegated to table tennis group (TG), where students participated in 2 h/week of table tennis training for 7 weeks, or to a Control group (CG) that included students without regular sport activity. Objective data on fine motor skills during completion of basic modules of high-fidelity vascular catheterization and arthroscopy simulators were recorded before and after the 7-week period. In the TG group, significant differences were found in time and quality parameters compared to CG. On the vascular catheterization simulator basic navigation module, all time parameters improved. On the arthroscopy simulator basic skill module, the total performance and safety scores significantly improved, and procedure time decreased. In conclusion, high-fidelity vascular catheterization and arthroscopy medical simulators with basic training modules could provide useful feedback for fine motor skill development. The intensive table tennis training program was effective in maintaining/improving medical students' fine manual skills.
手术医学需要精细的手工技能；因此，一些教育培训项目也注重技能发展。与运动科学相关，各种运动类型也依赖于精细运动技能。我们假设一个适当的运动训练项目可能有助于医学生手部灵巧性的发展。我们使用高保真医学模拟器进行了客观测试。将志愿医学生分配到乒乓球组（TG），学生们每周参加2小时的乒乓球训练，共7周，或者分配到对照组（CG），该组学生没有定期的体育活动。在7周期间前后记录了高保真血管导管插入术和关节镜检查模拟器基本模块完成过程中精细运动技能的客观数据。在TG组中，与CG组相比，在时间和质量参数上发现了显著差异。在血管导管插入术模拟器基本导航模块上，所有时间参数都有所改善。在关节镜检查模拟器基本技能模块上，总表现和安全得分显著提高，操作时间减少。总之，具有基本训练模块的高保真血管导管插入术和关节镜检查医学模拟器可以为精细运动技能发展提供有用的反馈。强化乒乓球训练项目在维持/提高医学生精细手工技能方面是有效的。
