“…According to the responses, the most commonly performed MISTs were: GreenLight PVP (25, 43.1%), Holmium (7, 12.07%), none (21, 36.2%), other (5,8.6%, all reported as TURP). Senior residents (R3-R4-R5) would like additional exposure to GreenLight, bipolar TURP, Olympus PlasmaButton, HoLEP, Thulium and monopolar TURP during their residency (Fig.…”

“…In terms of initial complications, Kalstrom and colleagues evaluated the construct validity of the PelvicVision TURP simulation model. 8 Eleven medical students and 9 urologists completed 6 full procedures. Students required double the time with longer resectoscope tip movements, more serious perforations of the prostatic capsule and sphincter, with 5 times higher irrigation fluid uptake/ resected volume.…”

ObjectiveTo evaluate the face, content and construct validity of the distributed simulation (DS) environment for technical and non-technical skills training in endourology. To evaluate the educational impact of DS for urology training. Subjects and MethodsDS offers a portable, low-cost simulated operating room environment that can be set up in any open space. A prospective mixed methods design using established validation methodology was conducted in this simulated environment with 10 experienced and 10 trainee urologists. All participants performed a simulated prostate resection in the DS environment. Outcome measures included surveys to evaluate the DS, as well as comparative analyses of experienced and trainee urologist's performance using realtime and 'blinded' video analysis and validated performance metrics. Non-parametric statistical methods were used to compare differences between groups. ResultsThe DS environment demonstrated face, content and construct validity for both non-technical and technical skills. Kirkpatrick level 1 evidence for the educational impact of the DS environment was shown. Further studies are needed to evaluate the effect of simulated operating room training on real operating room performance. ConclusionsThis study has shown the validity of the DS environment for non-technical, as well as technical skills training. DS-based simulation appears to be a valuable addition to traditional classroom-based simulation training.

Construct Validity of a Full Procedure, Virtual Reality, Real-Time, Simulation Model for Training in Transurethral Resection of the Prostate

Abstract: There is proof of construct validity and good content validation for this full procedure simulator for training in transurethral resection of the prostate. The simulator could be used in the early training of urology residents without risk of negative outcome.
