Box trainers are used simultaneously alongside virtual reality simulation for a versatile training experience and for residents to prepare for their first real patient. With Simball® Box residents and surgeons can train with real instruments and objective performance feedback essential for structured learning. To reduce novice mistakes, it is of outmost importance to manage fundamental laparoscopic skills. To learn safe and efficient techniques, Simball® Box offers instant feedback on velocity, with tutorial task videos showing a preferred approach. Metrics are collected and visualized in easy-to-understand diagrams, it has never been easier to follow your progress and benchmark your performance related to expert levels. Simball®Box offers surgeons and resident the opportunity to train with their preferred OR instruments and get a sense of the counterintuitive movements, limited space awareness and reduced tactile feedback that constitute some of the characteristics of laparoscopy. Simball® Box is equipped with a high definition camera and advanced instrument-tracking that provide objective feedback. The data, which are visualized in convenient diagrams, show the economy of movement with a focus on the distance covered by the instruments, making it easy to assess the residents level of proficiency. PATIENT SAFETY FIRST Mastering the basic skills of laparoscopy, before entering the operating theater for the first time, reduces the risk of resident physicians making medical errors, which in turn translate to fewer adverse events experienced by patients and lower costs of medical care.
