Haptic Fidelity: The Game Changer in Surgical Simulators for the Next Decade?
Résumé
Introduction
Over the last 20 years, surgical simulation has evolved tremendously from bench models to “high-fidelity” virtual reality surgical simulators. The main objective of these simulators is to acquire the technical skills to be transferred to the operating room without any risk for patients. In this intent, both simulator and the progression of the simulation training process must be validated and follow the standards. Nevertheless, a facet of surgical simulation lacks a deep consideration: the haptic feedback, which is essential in most surgical procedures, is rarely assessed and the place of haptic fidelity is unclear. Then, how can we determine the place of haptic fidelity in surgical simulation training?
