Virtual Reality in Orthopedic Surgery Training
Abstrak
Abstract One emerging technology with the potential to improve and further transform the field of orthopaedic surgery is virtual reality (VR). VR has been explored and used in many different specialties with clinical applications, such as psychiatric therapy, pain management, rehabilitation, and traumatic brain injury. Recent studies have suggested that the use of VR during the training of orthopaedic surgery residents produces similar or improved surgical performance by residents. This is an area where VR can provide a tremendous benefit to the field of orthopaedic surgery, as it offers a safe and accessible complement to orthopaedic surgical training outside of the operating room (OR) and without involving patients directly. This review will elucidate the current state of virtual reality use in the training of orthopaedic surgeons and highlight key benefits and challenges in its application as a training resource.
