Influence of Distraction Factors on Performance in Laparoscopic Surgery in Immersive Virtual Reality: Study Protocol of a Cross-Over Trial in Medical Students and Residents—DisLapVR

Influence of Distraction Factors on Performance in Laparoscopic Surgery in Immersive Virtual Reality: Study Protocol of a Cross-Over Trial in Medical Students and Residents—DisLapVR

Prior studies could show that training in immersive laparoscopy induces a higher cognitive load, making this method already more demanding than conventional laparoscopy training [12]. Sankaranarayanan et al [13] have presented a simulated IVR program with similar goals and were able to show a significant difference in performance with or without distraction. As mentioned, our group was able to show in the past that IVR using real video material is preferred by users over simulated environments [10,14].

Use of Spinal Anesthesia in Pediatric Laparoscopic Appendectomies: Case Series

Use of Spinal Anesthesia in Pediatric Laparoscopic Appendectomies: Case Series

One of the first reports of laparoscopy under spinal anesthesia was reported by Islam et al [14] in 2014, where laparoscopic pyloromyotomy procedures in infants were investigated. Of the 12 cases studied, 9 were successful, while the other 3 cases required conversion to general anesthesia. The 3 failures were related to the inability to access the intrathecal space and an inadequate block level so that the infant did not tolerate insufflations of the abdomen.

Development and Validation of Clinical Prediction Models for Surgical Success in Patients With Endometriosis: Protocol for a Mixed Methods Study

Development and Validation of Clinical Prediction Models for Surgical Success in Patients With Endometriosis: Protocol for a Mixed Methods Study

The diagnostic gold standard is pelvic laparoscopy under general anesthesia. Laparoscopy can be diagnostic, therapeutic, or both. Diagnostic delays lead to unnecessary suffering, and endometriosis is associated with debilitating pelvic pain, infertility, and fatigue and can have devastating effects on the quality of life (Qo L). Endometriosis has no cure, but there are a number of treatment options.

COVID-19 and Laparoscopic Surgery: Scoping Review of Current Literature and Local Expertise

COVID-19 and Laparoscopic Surgery: Scoping Review of Current Literature and Local Expertise

Many acute surgical interventions are performed by laparoscopy; however, very little is written about the risks for health care providers of performing laparoscopic surgery on a patient with COVID-19. There is a debate in the literature whether open surgery is safer for health care providers compared to laparoscopic surgery [12,13].
