Video Feedback Versus Verbal Feedback
A study testing Video feedback followed by structured verbal feedback and Structured verbal feedback followed by video feedback in people with Resident Surgical Training, run by University of New Mexico.
Trial summary
The long term goal of our research is to develop a curriculum for Obstetrics and Gynecology resident physicians that regularly employs use of video assessment to improve surgical skills. Regular use of video feedback may enable improved self-assessment and allow for formal documentation of proficiency. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Video Feedback Versus Verbal Feedback in Simulated Laparoscopic Vaginal Cuff Closure
The long term goal of our research is to develop a curriculum for Obstetrics and Gynecology resident physicians that regularly employs use of video assessment to improve surgical skills. Regular use of video feedback may enable improved self-assessment and allow for formal documentation of proficiency. The overall objective is to compare the use of video feedback to use of structured verbal feedback in the simulated task of laparoscopic vaginal cuff closure.

- Resident Surgical Training
- Being tested

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Improvement in ob/gyn resident physician self-efficacy as measured by self-efficacy questionnaire in video versus verbal feedback for simulated laparoscopic vaginal cuff closure
Resident physicians will report their self-efficacy in completion of simulated laparoscopic vaginal cuff closure using an adaptation of a previously validated self-efficacy questionnaire. Their self-efficacy will be compared after completion of the task incorporating verbal feedback from a proctor to completion of the task incorporating review of video feedback provided by proctor.
Measured: up to 18 months
Secondary outcomes (2)
Improvement in time of simulated laparoscopic vaginal cuff closure with video versus verbal feedback
Resident physicians will be timed (in minutes) for completion of simulated laparoscopic vaginal cuff closure. Time will be compared in completion of the task after verbal feedback from a proctor versus completion of task after video feedback from a proctor.
Measured: up to 18 months
Improvement in skill of simulated laparoscopic vaginal cuff closure as measured by Objective Structured Assessment of Technical Skills (OSATS) global rating scale with video versus verbal feedback
Two advanced gynecologic laparoscopists will review the films of the tasks for each resident physician. They will rate level of skill for each participant based on Objective Structured Assessment of Technical Skills (OSATS) global rating scale. The reviews will generate two scores for each participant: the score for the task completed after the resident receives verbal feedback and the score for the task completed after the resident receives video feedback. The two scores will then be compared for each participant.
Measured: up to 18 months

What does the primary outcome measure?
Improvement in ob/gyn resident physician self-efficacy as measured by self-efficacy questionnaire in video versus verbal feedback for simulated laparoscopic vaginal cuff closure (time frame: up to 18 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
