Objective To demonstrate that virtual reality (VR) training transfers technical skills to the operating room (OR) environment. Summary Background Data The use of VR surgical simulation train and reduce error risk in OR has never been demonstrated a prospective, randomized, blinded study. Methods Sixteen residents (PGY 1–4) had baseline psychomotor abilities assessed, then were randomized either (MIST simulator diathermy task) until expert criterion levels established by experienced...
<b>Background: </b> Diffusion-weighted (DWI) and perfusion-weighted (PWI) MRI are powerful new techniques for the assessment of acute cerebral ischemia. However, quantitative data comparing severity clinical neurologic deficit with results DWI or PWI in earliest phases stroke scarce. Such information is vital if potentially to be used as an objective adjunctive measure outcome. <b>Objective: The authors compared initial lesion volumes subsequent 24-hour determined by National Institutes...
Using Jones' (1995) model of control, intensity (level) and direction (interpretation) symptoms associated with competitive trait anxiety were examined as a function sport type experience. Participants from gross explosive fine motor‐skill sports ( n =162) completed version the Competitive State Anxiety Inventory‐2 Martens et al., 1990a ) including subscales Jones & Swain, 1992 ). Main effects for experience reported indicating more facilitative to performance than sports. Experienced...
Abstract Starting in 2004, a medical school gross anatomy course faced with 30% cut hours went through an extensive redesign, which transformed traditional dissection into clinical focus, learning societies, and on‐line support. Built the redesign process was ongoing assessment process, included student focus groups, faculty development, surveys, examinations. These assessments were used formatively, to enhance from year year, summatively, determine how well meeting new objectives. The...
The exponential growth of medical knowledge presents a challenge for the school curriculum. Because anatomy is traditionally long course, it an attractive target to reduce course hours, yet designing courses that produce students with less understanding human not viable option. Faced teaching more time, we set out understand how employ instructional media learn inside and outside classroom. We developed series pilot programs explore and, in particular, they combine technology traditional...
Goal-setting effects on selected performance behaviors of 5 collegiate rugby players were assessed over an entire competitive season using self-generated targets and goal-attainment scaling. Results suggest that goal setting was effective for enhancing task-specific on-field behavior in union.
Abstract Using a goal-setting model (CitationBurton, Naylor, & Holliday, 2001), the purpose of this study was to examine effects intervention upon performance as function skill level. A multiple-baseline across-individuals single subject design employed with 3 elite and nonelite male boxers aged between 15–17 years (M = 16; SD 1). Self-generated behaviors, competition outcome, competitive anxiety intensity direction, self-confidence were measured across season (10-fight period). Retention...
We tested the hypothesis that dominant and nondominant overarm throws of different speeds are made by time-scaling joint rotations, i.e., rotations have same positions amplitudes but scaled in time. Eight skilled subjects stood with both their arms. Six were computed from recordings arm segments search-coil technique. Throws arms less accurate had lower ball speeds. In contrast to hypothesis, showed large consistent differences between fast slow six-dimensional angular position space. These...
Abstract There is little consensus among programs that train physician assistants (PAs) regarding how much time should be devoted to the study of anatomy, what included, or it taught. Similar concerns led us redesign anatomy for medical students and introduce clinically engaged an approach designed in collaboration with clinical faculty. This presents entirely within context common cases. report examines whether could adapted PA program, where cover basic sciences half as students. We...
History is full of examples public health, commerce and politics in conflict. In recent years attempts to protect UK egg producers, after the discovery Salmonella enteritidis (phage type 4) hens' eggs, strained previously good working relationships between medical veterinary epidemiologists ended political career a government minister who spoke out defence health. Against background lessons earlier high profile health problems conflict should have been avoided when bovine spongiform...
Backboards have been shown to cause pain in uninjured patients. This may alter physical exam findings, leading emergency department (ED) providers suspect a spinal injury when none exists resulting additional imaging of the thoracolumbar spine. New York had previously employed "Spinal Immobilization" protocol that included compulsory backboard application for all patients with suspected injuries. In 2015, instituted new Motion Restriction" made use optional these The objective this study was...
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to discuss the experiences a teacher education program in United Arab Emirates demonstrate how can best balance particular needs country's educational system with requirements international recognition, including benchmarking standards and undertaking formal third‐party accreditation. Design/methodology/approach process begins first self‐reflection or analysis, reviewing terms curriculum, assessment, clinical practice, faculty operational indicators,...
