Validation of a Cognitive Task Simulation and Rehearsal Tool for Open Carpal Tunnel Release

Abstract

This mobile-based surgical simulation platform provides step-by-step instruction for a variety of surgical procedures. The findings of this study help to demonstrate its utility as a learning tool, as we confirmed construct, face, content, and acceptability validity for carpal tunnel release. This easy-to-use educational tool may help bring surgical education to a new-and highly mobile-level.
