Silicone as a smart solution for simulating soft tissue—an iterative approach to developing a high-fidelity sustainable training model for laparoscopic appendectomy
Surgical residents can benefit from the platform that simulation-based education offers to develop the psychomotor skills necessary to perform LA in a safe learning environment. We describe a model for LA, which allows learners to develop their skill proficiency in this area under expert supervision.
