Beyond Textbooks: Interactive Learning of Biomechanical Principles of Osteosynthesis with an Online Tool for Orthopaedic Residents
Self-directed learning with the interactive 3D models available in the freely available online tool OSapp led to a significant and sustained improvement of residents' knowledge and understanding of the biomechanical principles of osteosynthesis. Utilizing OSapp in surgical education could help to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of training and may thus lead to decreased fracture treatment complications including failure of osteosyntheses.
