Surgical coaching involves the development of a partnership between two surgeons in which one surgeon (coach) guides the other (coachee) in identifying goals, providing feedback and facilitating action planning. Surgical coaching provides an effective means of acquiring new technical and non-technical skills. In this study, the investigators aim to perform a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the impact of a video-based surgical coaching intervention on laparoscopic closure of the vaginal cuff among Obstetrics and Gynecology residents. Obstetrics and Gynecology resident participants will be randomly assigned to the control or intervention groups. Participants will have access to an instructional video related to laparoscopic vaginal cuff suturing and the validated laparoscopic vaginal cuff trainer to practice laparoscopic suturing as desired. The intervention group will receive the same resources as the control group and will also undergo three video-based coaching sessions focused on laparoscopic suturing on the validated laparoscopic vaginal cuff trainer. Our main outcome will consist of participants' change in technical skills of laparoscopic suturing the vaginal cuff, measured by the change in Global Operative Assessment of Laparoscopic Skills Plus score (Vassiliou 2005) from baseline to study completion. Secondary outcomes will include participants' self-reported surgical confidence, operative enjoyment, and plans to incorporate surgery into their career.
NCT06687395
Background: FONA (front of neck access) is a surgical airway management technique used in emergency situations, primarily as the "last option" when less invasive airway management methods have failed. The need for FONA is extremely rare, which makes regular training in this skill all the more important. Study Objective: The objective of this study is to test "skill retention" three to four months after training on different cricothyrotomy models. The goal is to demonstrate that there is no intolerable difference in skill retention, regardless of whether FONA training is conducted on a commercially available cricothyrotomy model or on a self-made model. Population: The study population consists of 42 participants who are randomly assigned to two groups. Study Design: All participants begin with the same theoretical input. Following this, they complete training on their assigned practice model before undergoing an initial evaluation. Three to four months after the first evaluation, a reevaluation takes place, this time without any prior training. Parameters: The primary outcome parameter of the study is the score achieved on the checklist. Secondary outcome parameters include the time from the start of the procedure to the first successful ventilation and subjective assessment using a Likert scale questionnaire. Possible associations between checklist results and factors such as year of training, prior experience, clinical experience, and individual items on the subjective assessment questionnaire will be presented graphically in an exploratory manner and quantified using appropriate correlation coefficients. Hypothesis: The study aims to show that there is no intolerable difference in skill retention, regardless of whether FONA training takes place on a commercially available cricothyrotomy model or on a self-made model. This would open up the possibility of using cost-effective and readily accessible practice models for effective skill training.

Ultrasound guidance plays a pivotal role in caudal epidural block in pediatric patients. In comparison to conventional single-plane ultrasound, biplane ultrasound offers the advantage of providing simultaneous transverse and longitudinal imaging. Better visualization under biplane ultrasound is postulated to enhance the efficacy of caudal epidural blocks. This improvement is expected to manifest through higher first puncture success rate, shorter procedure time, and longer time to first postoperative analgesics use.

One of the behavioral intervention programs used to adapt to the changes experienced during pregnancy, birth and postpartum and to maintain a healthy transition to parenthood is Conscious Awareness-Based Practices Conscious awareness is an experiential process in which attention is directed purposefully and consciously to what is happening in the body and mind at that moment, and the content that emerges as a result of these observations is accepted with curiosity, understanding and compassion, without being judged, analyzed, or reacted . Due to their stated effects, these interventions help parents improve their awareness and acceptance of thoughts, feelings, and body sensations, reduce reactivity, avoid disturbing experiences, accept the roles and responsibilities of parenting in a non-judgmental manner, learn to use mechanisms to cope with the stress of parenting, and help themselves and the child. It is important to enable people to show compassion . Awareness-based training can be integrated into birth preparation training as it is a method that can be used to improve birth parameters. Awareness-Based Parenting and Birth Preparation Training applied during the transition to parenthood is important as it will increase the quality of pregnancy, birth and postpartum care, as it will increase competence and adaptation to parenting roles, facilitate the birth process, and ensure maternal and paternal attachment. For all these reasons, this research was planned to investigate the effects of Awareness-Based Parenting and Birth Preparation Training given to couples on maternal-paternal attachment, birth parameters and postpartum adaptation. It is thought that the training that parents receive to be aware of their own body and birth process will make a positive contribution to pregnancy, birth and the postpartum process.

NCT05729802
The current pandemic has revealed in-person simulation training and evaluation is vulnerable to disruption, and alternatives are needed which allow remote evaluation. The recently developed Microsoft Hololens headset device allows interactable holograms to be inserted into a user's workspace (mixed reality) - permitting the augmentation of existing clinical and training spaces with holographic (i.e. virtual) patients via the prototype HoloSIM software. This study is the first known research initiative aiming to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of mixed reality for acute medicine training and assessment at a distance. Space, time, personnel, pandemic, and cost constraints limit opportunities for high-fidelity simulation exercises for post-graduate trainees at Sunnybrook. By developing and demonstrating the effectiveness of this new training modality, increased simulation exercises will lead to a higher quality education experience, better functioning teams, and better patient outcomes.
