About this study

Considering the development of gastric cancer surgery using da Vinci Robotic Surgical System, the development of educational program needs to be achieved in Korea and this institute. Moreover, because of the large number of gastrectomy including robotic surgery for gastric cancer treatment, the investigators can provide high quality of educational program using da Vinci System. Therefore, the investigators wanted to create an innovative real-time training module, which can provide an intraoperative step-by-step guide to robotic surgical procedures. This technological project was named as Advanced Robotic Multi-display Educational System (ARMES).

Considering the development of gastric cancer surgery using da Vinci Robotic Surgical System, the development of educational program needs to be achieved in Korea and this institute. Moreover, because of the large number of gastrectomy including robotic surgery for gastric cancer treatment, the investigators can provide high quality of educational program using da Vinci System. Therefore, the investigators wanted to create an innovative real-time training module, which can provide an intraoperative step-by-step guide to robotic surgical procedures. This technological project was named as Advanced Robotic Multi-display Educational System (ARMES).

The four-stages of ARMES development are as follows:

  1. Standardization of the key steps of the selected procedure;
  2. Preparation of well edited short video clips for each of the previously determined steps using our extensive library of videos of over 350 high quality robotic gastrectomies;
  3. Production of a 3D animation of the key surgical steps;
  4. Integration of the video segments into the da Vinci Robot system using TileproTM.

Through predetermined standardized segments of short operation video clips and 3D animation, the investigators are developing a versatile intra-operative on-screen audiovisual mentoring system using TileproTM program, which will improve surgeons' capabilities to perform complex robotic operations achieving quicker operation specific competency. It will help surgeons at initial state of robotic surgery in technical as well as oncological aspect for cancer surgery in detail and step-by-step. Finally this program can be applied to other robotic surgery and progressed to be a standard education program.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Stomach Cancer, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Feb 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Feb 2012.
