Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical Trial
The effectiveness of video feedback in the acquisition of orthopedic technical skills.
The addition of video feedback to bench model training offers residents the opportunity to see themselves perform a surgical task. Videotaped feedback therefore promotes self-evaluation, a critical learning skill, and also has the potential to influence how a resident executes a skill once they have had the opportunity to see themselves perform the task. ⋯ This study failed to demonstrate an improvement in technical skills based on utilization of video feedback.
