The integration of Virtual Reality (VR) into orthopaedic surgery training is a rapidly growing trend and is poised to significantly influence the education of orthopaedic residents. This paper presents a study that examines the effectiveness of VR training in orthopaedic surgery, specifically focusing on its inclusivity. The research involved an experimental VR training session that utilised the Occulus Meta Quest 2 device and VR training software, with participants encompassing medical students, doctors, and consultants. These participants engaged in various practice modules, and their post-session feedback indicated that the majority found the 3D immersive orientation of surgical procedures to be advantageous. Additionally, they expressed a strong preference for practising techniques in VR that they had not encountered in the operating room. Furthermore, this study includes an extensive review of existing literature on VR training in orthopaedic surgery, covering a wide array of sub-specialities and techniques. This comprehensive analysis provides valuable insights into the perceptions and experiences of surgical trainees pertaining to VR training in orthopaedic surgery.

摘要

The integration of Virtual Reality (VR) into orthopaedic surgery training is a rapidly growing trend and is poised to significantly influence the education of orthopaedic residents. This paper presents a study that examines the effectiveness of VR training in orthopaedic surgery, specifically focusing on its inclusivity. The research involved an experimental VR training session that utilised the Occulus Meta Quest 2 device and VR training software, with participants encompassing medical students, doctors, and consultants. These participants engaged in various practice modules, and their post-session feedback indicated that the majority found the 3D immersive orientation of surgical procedures to be advantageous. Additionally, they expressed a strong preference for practising techniques in VR that they had not encountered in the operating room. Furthermore, this study includes an extensive review of existing literature on VR training in orthopaedic surgery, covering a wide array of sub-specialities and techniques. This comprehensive analysis provides valuable insights into the perceptions and experiences of surgical trainees pertaining to VR training in orthopaedic surgery.
