Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The main objective is to investigate whether listening to recorded music has a positive effect on the execution of laparoscopic skills.

Secondary objectives are to investigate the effects of music during surgical performance on blood pressure, mental workload and heart rate.

Study design: This will be a 4-period 4-sequence 2-treatment crossover study, participants will be exposed to both control (noise cancelling headphones without music) and the intervention (preferred music via headphones) whilst performing a laparoscopic task in a box trainer. Every period consists of 5 repetitions of a laparoscopic peg transfer task. In total participants will perform in each condition 10 peg transfer tasks.

Prior to the experiment, all participants practice the laparoscopic peg transfer task 20 times

Study population: Healthy volunteering medicine students without laparoscopic experience.

Intervention (if applicable): Participants will perform 2 periods of 5 laparoscopic peg transfer task whilst listening to preferred recorded music via headphones and 2 periods of 5 laparoscopic peg transfer tasks while wearing noise cancelling headphones without music (2 periods of 5 tasks).

Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary endpoint is laparoscopic performance as defined by time of task completion Secondary endpoints are: laparoscopic task performance (path length, jerk, error score, economy of motion) vital parameters (heart rate, and post test blood pressure) and mental workload (SURG-TLX)

CROSSOVER

This will be a 4-period 4-sequence 2-treatment crossover study, participants will be exposed to both control group (A), the silent group, and intervention group (B), the music group, whilst performing a laparoscopic task in a box trainer.

Participants will be randomly assigned to a sequence that determines in which order they are being exposed to both auditory environments
