What’s New?
We’ve been busy creating new surgery and instrumentation modules. Neurosurgery was a high priority as we are collaborating with David Clarke and his colleagues at Dalhousie in an exciting research study. The Rookie Camp research study looks at the effects of training rookie neurosurgical residents with PeriopSim. Read more below.
Now we need to hear from you. Which surgeries would be most useful for your team? Please take a minute to vote on new content.
Lap Chole and Burr Hole Modules
We’ve now added Lap Chole and Burr Hole surgery, Lap Chole instrumentation and 3 neurosurgery instrumentation modules.

Rookie Neurosurgeons Learn with PeriopSim!
Rookie Camp Research Study
The Rookie Camp research study, conducted by Dalhousie University’s Division of Neurosurgery in association with 12 established Neurosurgery training programs across Canada, evaluated PeriopSim as an educational and training tool.
The results showed significant gains in OR instrument training and surgical procedure performance for neurosurgical residents. PeriopSim reduced the number of errors and improved the amount time saved, while also improving over all performance scores in simulated surgical skills training.
The research study manuscript is currently submitted for peer review publication in an international journal for advanced medical training and education. We look forward to sharing more details when it is published.
We’re proud to work with Dr Clarke and his team at Dalhousie University / Nova Scotia Health Authority to produce our neurosurgery content and to contribute to this exciting research study.
