Electrical Department, Research and Advanced Studies Center of the National Polytechnic Institute of Mexico (CINVESTAV), Mexico City, Mexico.
The aim of this work is to present a new physical laparoscopy simulator with an electromyography (EMG)/accelerometry-based muscle activity recording system, , and perform objective evaluation of laparoscopic skills based on the quantification of muscle activity of participants with different levels of laparoscopic experience. . EMG and ACC signals were obtained from 14 participants (6 experts, 8 medical students) performing circular pattern cutting tasks using a laparoscopic box trainer with the Trigno (Delsys Inc, Natick, MA) portable wireless system of 16 wireless sensors.

Objective: Metric-based surgical training can be used to quantify the level and progression of neurosurgical performance to optimize and monitor training progress. Here we applied innovative metrics to a physical neurosurgery trainer to explore whether these metrics differentiate between different levels of experience across different tasks.
Methods: Twenty-four participants (9 experts, 15 novices) performed 4 tasks (dissection, spatial adaptation, depth adaptation, and the A-B-A task) using the PsT1 training system.

Article Synopsis
- Navigation technology is crucial for training in medical fields, particularly for image-guided spinal surgeries; however, there is a lack of affordable surgical simulators.
- A new low-cost spinal surgery simulator, Spine MovDigSys 01, was developed to enhance 3D navigation without restricting a surgeon's natural movements using an anatomical lumbar model and two webcams.
- Initial testing of the simulator with surgeons showed promising results in capturing key operational metrics and providing valuable feedback, demonstrating its potential for developing essential surgical skills in trainees.
PsT1: A Low-Cost Optical Simulator for Psychomotor Skills Training in Neuroendoscopy.
World Neurosurg
June 2015
Research and Advanced Studies Center of the National Polytechnic Institute of Mexico (Cinvestav - IPN), Electrical Department, Col San Pedro Zacatenco, México DF.
Background: Well-developed psychomotor skills are important for competence in minimally invasive surgery. Neuroendoscopy is no exception, and adaptation to different visual perspectives and careful handling of the surgical instruments are mandatory. Few training systems, however, focus on developing psychomotor skills for neuroendoscopy.

It is widely documented that laparoscopic surgeons require training, and an objective evaluation of the training that they receive. The most advanced evaluation systems integrate the digitization of the movement of laparoscopic tools. A great number of these systems, however, do not permit the use of real tools and their high cost limits their academic impact.
