ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is exploring whether a special training program using the Miya Model can help new surgeons perform vaginal hysterectomies (a surgery to remove the uterus) more effectively in the operating room. The goal is to see if practicing with this simulation training can improve the skills of surgeons who are still learning.
To participate in this study, you need to be a surgical resident at one of the hospitals involved and have done ten or fewer vaginal hysterectomies so far. If you've already had specialized training for this type of surgery or have performed more than ten, you wouldn't be eligible. If you join the study, you can expect to engage in hands-on training and then demonstrate your skills in the operating room. This trial could play an important role in improving surgical training for future doctors!
