Simulation in Surgery

Simulation in surgery involves the use of advanced models, virtual reality, or practice labs that mimic real surgical procedures. It allows surgeons to develop skills, refine techniques, and make mistakes in a risk-free environment before performing on actual patients. This approach improves surgical accuracy, safety, and confidence, leading to better patient outcomes. Essentially, it’s like a flight simulator for pilots but designed for surgeons—giving them hands-on practice without harm, ultimately enhancing their readiness for real surgeries.
