Positive reaction to immersive robotic surgical training

Researchers found that using 3D visors for immersive robotic surgery training garnered positive feedback from medical students and residents. Nearly 90% of participants expressed high engagement and intention to use the technology. The median System Usability Scale score was 80, and the median Simulator Sickness Questionnaire score was 44.88. These results suggest that immersive reality could be an effective tool for enhancing surgical training, with trainees reacting favorably to the enhanced intracorporeal vision and overall experience.
