Simulation-based surgical training (SBST) is key to securing future surgical expertise. Proficiency-based training (PBT) in laparoscopy has shown promising results on skills transfer. However, time constraints and limited possibilities for distributed training constitute barriers to effective PBT. Home-based training may provide a solution to these...

The highlight of the study reported here is threefold: Firstly, a high-precision spatial error model of the machine tool is derived by means of the screw theory. Secondly, a precision evaluation method of the machine tool combining qualitative and quantitative spatial error of the machine tool is proposed. Thirdly, through example verification, the...

BackgroundSimulation has been widely used in the teaching of pre-licensed nursing students and has shown positive results. However, there is limited evidence regarding the application of a comprehensive nursing course with simulation for Associated Degree in Nursing (ADN)-prepared nurses with different work experience times. Therefore, this study a...

Background Virtual Reality (VR) has proven to be an interesting and expanding tool for healthcare education, especially with the impact of the Sense of Presence (SoP) on learning. The study was designed to investigate to what extent users’ social and internal factors might influence the SoP and to further identify members of occupations’ characteri...

A recently developed compact 3 T (C3T) MRI scanner with high performance gradients [1, 2] has a dedicated radiofrequency (RF) transmit coil that exposes only the head, neck and a small portion of the upper body region during head-first scanning. Due to the unique coil geometry and patient positioning, the established SAR model used for a convention...

Robotic surgery (RS) has been increasingly incorporated into colorectal surgery (CRS) training. The degree to which RS has been integrated into CRS residency training is not well described. A web-based survey was sent to all 2019 accredited CRS residency programs within the United States and Canada. Program directors (PDs) were queried on how robot...

The current process for specifying, installing and commissioning building control sequences is largely manual and based on ambiguous natural language specifications. It lacks a formal end-to-end quality control and it has been shown not to deliver high performance sequences at scale. While high-performance HVAC control sequences enable significant ...

Introduction: Over the last several decades simulation, in both graduate and undergraduate emergency medicine education, has continued to develop as a leading and highly effective teaching modality. Limited research exists to evaluate the efficacy of low-fidelity (table-top) simulation, as compared to high-fidelity standards, as it relates to medic...

Relying on preliminary experiments, in this work we design a tunable 850 nm laser based on a hybrid combination of a liquid crystal micro-cell with nanoimprinted grating and an electrically-pumped GaAs half-VCSEL. The optical design is challenging due to the inherent tolerances of this hybrid technology, the presence of metals in the cavity and the...
