Abstract

Changes are needed due to the evolution of traditional surgical techniques and surgeon training models. For this reason the minimally invasive surgery research and training centre (CLEMI) has developed and applied teaching models to help in the training of minimally invasive surgical techniques, such as knee arthroscopy. CLEMI proposes a model based on simulation taught in a controlled, structured, and progressive environment that is tailored to the individual rhythm of each of the students. Initially, the student will encounter theoretical concepts of instruments, equipment and, ergonomics. Later, in the practical phase, an anatomical synthetic model of the knee will be used in the practical phase, followed by a biological model in order to perform exercises to develop the skills required for the surgical techniques. Training in models under a controlled environment decreases the learning period and increases student skills.
