Learning curves of novice residents on cataract surgery simulator: the E3CAPS pedagogic study
A training program consisting of four two-hour sessions on the EyeSi simulator over four consecutive days effectively enhances the surgical skills of novice ophthalmology residents. Undergoing more training sessions may improve scores and decrease the incidence of surgical complications, particularly at the emulsification step of cataract surgery. The learning curves presented here can reassure residents who are progressing normally and help identify those who need a further personalized training program. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials registration number: NCT05722080 (first submitted 22/12/2022, first posted 10/02/2023).
