Conclusions
The creation of a systematization of training in simulation applied to the three-dimensional model enabled gain in laparoscopic skills and underpinned its theoretical and practical foundations.
Methods
This is an experimental study, 18 participants were selected, divided into three groups, experimental (GE) surgeons in training, control (GC) experienced surgeons and Shaw (GS) nonexperienced surgeons. The simulation in the 3D model was carried out in 6 sessions fulfilling the 5 stages. Opening the peritoneum with the creation of the preperitoneal space; identification of important structures; hernia identification and reduction; placement and fixation of the mesh in Cooper's ligament and closure of the peritoneum.
Purpose
Develop a 3D model for the simulation of laparoscopic inguinal hernioplasty transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP).
Results
In the 1st stage, the GE obtained an average of 1.25 ± 0.42 in the 1st session and 3.25 ± 0.62 in the 6th session (p = 0.05) and in the 5th stage 0.91 ± 0.29 in the first session. 1st session and 1.91 ± 0.29 in the 6th session (p = 0.001), with no significant difference between groups. The learning and skill curve in the SG represented 1.08 ± 0.29 1st and 3.50 ± 0.90 6th session (p = 0.001). Conclusions: The creation of a systematization of training in simulation applied to the three-dimensional model enabled gain in laparoscopic skills and underpinned its theoretical and practical foundations.
