Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this single-center randomized study is to investigate whether bronchoscopy training in an immersive Virtual Reality (iVR) environment will make the surgeon better at handling distractions and increase the quality of the bronchoscopy.

The participants will be stratified according to gender and randomized into two groups. Both groups will initially train on the bronchoscopy simulator without VR. Afterwards the intervention group will train in an iVR environment with Virtual Reality Goggles while using the bronchoscopy simulator, while the control group will train without VR goggles.

Afterwards both groups will be tested in the iVR environment in a test scenario

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Randomization is performed online using SealedEnvelope™ (Sealed Envelope ltd, London, UK) before the start of the trial. The participants are stratified by sex (man/woman) as this has been seen to influence skills acquisition during the early part of in the learning curve

Primary Study Purpose

OTHER

Blinding Strategy

DOUBLE

Participants Outcome Assessors

The participants will not be blinded to the main investigator, as this is impossible due to the nature of the trial. The statistical analysis will be performed blinded and by someone other than the principal investigator.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

iVR

The intervention group will train on a bronchoscopy simulator in an iVR environment with Virtual Reality Goggles (HTC IVE Pro Eye, HTC corporation, Taiwan) while using the bronchoscopy simulator.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Immersive Virtual Reality

Intervention Type OTHER

Training in an iVR environment with Virtual Reality Goggles while using the bronchoscopy simulator, while the control group will train without VR goggles.

Non iVR

The control group will train on a bronchoscopy simulator without VR goggles.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group
