After eight weeks, students were observed and recorded performing FLS tasks. Progress through the VR curriculum was monitored weekly by a single faculty member (FLS certified) using online software (Mentorlearn™). Performance goals were those of the simulator for CN and HEC tasks and the standard goals given in the instruction manual for FLS tasks. Methods: Ten fourth year medical students applying for surgical residency completed a monitored, self-paced virtual reality training curriculum comprised of camera navigation (CN), hand eye coordination (HEC) and FLS tasks: circle cutting (CC), ligating loop (LL), peg transfer (PT), and intracorporeal knot tying (IKT). Our overall goal is to integrate milestone competencies for surgery across the educational continuum and document trainee progress toward proficiency. We studied the use of VR to characterize and assess the laparoscopic skills attained in a competency-based curriculum designed for graduating medical students applying for general surgery residency. Introduction: This study evaluates if undergraduate medical trainees’ laparoscopic skills acquisition could be monitored and assessed using a virtual reality (VR) simulator and how the resultant metrics correlate with actual performance of Fundamentals of Laparoscopic Surgery™ (FLS) tasks.
