Abstract

This paper aims to assess the needs of neurosurgical training in order to strategize the future plans for simulation and rehearsal. The project main objective is to investigate the ability virtual reality to enhance the training.An online questionnaire has been conducted among surgeons practicing in different countries across the globe. The study shows significant differences in rehearsal methods and surgical teaching methods practiced by the respondents. Among respondents, 90% did believe that virtual reality technology can serve surgical training, and almost all respondents agreed that there is a gap in the existing neurosurgical training in terms of operating room ergonomics. Adequate education on surgical ergonomics might lead to an improvement in the outcomes for both surgeon and patient. The contribution of the paper is two fold. From one side investigates the new requirements for the enhancement of Neurosurgenos’ training and adoption on Virtual Reality Simulator. From the other side contributes to the body of knowledge related to the required Ergonomics skills.

虚拟现实模拟器提高神经外科医生的人体工程学技能

本文旨在评估神经外科训练的需求，以便制定未来的模拟和排练计划。该项目的主要目的是探讨虚拟现实能力对提高培训的作用。在全球不同国家执业的外科医生中进行了一项在线问卷调查。研究发现，被调查者在演练方法和外科教学方法上存在显著差异。在受访者中，90%的人认为虚拟现实技术可以服务于外科培训，几乎所有的受访者都认为现有的神经外科培训在手术室人机工程学方面存在差距。充分的手术人体工程学教育可能会改善外科医生和患者的预后。这篇论文的贡献是双重的。从一个方面探讨了加强神经外科医生虚拟现实模拟器培训和应用的新要求。从另一方面有助于与所需的人体工程学技能相关的知识体系。

期刊介绍： The International Journal on Semantic Web and Information Systems (IJSWIS) promotes a knowledge transfer channel where academics, practitioners, and researchers can discuss, analyze, criticize, synthesize, communicate, elaborate, and simplify the more-than-promising technology of the semantic Web in the context of information systems. The journal aims to establish value-adding knowledge transfer and personal development channels in three distinctive areas: academia, industry, and government.
