Measuring the Impact of an Exoscopic Camera System on Learner Mental Workload in Vaginal Surgery

Key Points

• Learner mental workload decreases significantly when using an exoscopic camera system, improving surgical performance.
• Significant metrics include a reported 20% reduction in cognitive load during exoscopic-assisted surgery.
• Assessment involved measuring mental workload through established cognitive load indices and subjective feedback.
• Highlights the potential for enhanced training outcomes in surgical education through innovative technologies.
