传统的眼底手术要求眼科医生具备精细的操作技术,但即便拥有再精湛的操作技术,眼底手术还是存在很大的风险性。因此,为了减少手术风险,提高手术质量,对传统眼底手术进行改进是十分必要的。近年来,在我国对于人工智能产业的大力支持之下,应用于各类行业的机器人随之诞生。机器人辅助系统(robot auxiliary system,RAS)在医学领域,特别是眼科学中应用广泛。对近几年RAS应用于眼底手术的案例进行整理总结,并将RAS参与的眼底手术以及传统的眼底手术进行对比,可以发现RAS在眼底手术中的应用可以显著提高手术效率,并降低手术风险。未来RAS的发展趋势可能着重聚焦于与深度学习算法的紧密结合。通过算法对手术中的视野图像进行预测、优化,从而让高精度的眼底手术更加高效、安全。
Traditional fundus surgery requires ophthalmologists to be equipped with sophisticated operating techniques, but even with the most sophisticated operating techniques, fundus surgery still has great risks. Therefore, in order to reduce the risk of surgery and improve the quality of surgery, it is very necessary to improve the traditional fundus surgery. In recent years, with China’s strong support for the artificial intelligence industry, robots used in various industries have been born. Robot auxiliary system (RAS) is widely used in the medical field, especially in ophthalmology. By summarizing the cases of fundus surgery with RAS in recent years and comparing the fundus surgery involving RAS with traditional fundus surgery, it can be found that the application of RAS in fundus surgery can significantly improve the efficiency of surgery and reduce the risk of surgery. The future development trend of RAS may focus on the close integration with deep learning algorithms, which can predict and optimize the field of view images during surgery so that high-precision fundus surgery can be more efficient and safer.
目的:评估EYESi手术模拟器在眼科医师专科培训玻璃体手术中的教学效果。方法:招募中山大学中山眼科中心进行专科医师规范化培训的15名学员,开展眼底手术培训课程,随机分为A组、B组、C组,每组各5名学员。以培训开始前进行初次视网膜脱离手术作为基础分数,除玻璃体后脱离项目、视网膜前膜及内界膜项目等基础练习内容外,A组仅接受双手剪刀训练,B组仅接受激光训练,C组同时接受双手剪刀训练及激光训练。最后所有学员再进行视网膜脱离手术项目作为最终考核成绩。记录下学员的每次得分和操作时间。结果:培训后学员视网膜脱离手术得分较培训前提高(P<0.001)。C组与A组学员最终视网膜脱离手术得分高于B组学员(P<0.05)。有内眼手术经验的学员初次视网膜脱离手术得分高于无内眼手术经验的学员,且手术时长低于无内眼手术经验的学员(P<0.05)。结论:EYESi手术模拟器能有效提高眼科医师的手术操作信心及玻璃体视网膜手术操作技能,双手剪刀训练模块是玻璃体视网膜手术培训中的重要模块。
Objective: To assess the instructional efficacy of the EYESi surgical simulator in training ophthalmology residents on vitreoretinal surgical procedures. Methods: Fifteen ophthalmology residents participating in standardized specialist training program at Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center, Sun Yat-sen University, were randomly assigned to three groups (A, B, C; n=5 per group). All participants underwent an initial baseline assessment through simulated retinal detachment surgery. In addition to standard training modules covering posterior vitreous detachment, anterior retinal membrane peeling, and inner limiting membrane manipulation, Group A received supplementary bimanual scissors training, Group B underwent laser training, and Group C received both types of advanced training. The final assessments were carried out using the same retinal detachment simulation, with performance scores and operation times carefully recorded. Results: Post-training surveys revealed significant increases in both trainees’ self-confidence and their self-assessed surgical proficiency. Objective performance scores for retinal detachment surgery showed marked improvement after training (P < 0.001). Groups C and A achieved significantly higher final scores compared to Group B (P < 0.05). Participants with prior intraocular surgical experience scored higher and completed procedures more quickly in the baseline assessment than those without such experience (P < 0.05). Conclusions: The EYESi simulator proves to be an effective tool for enhancing surgical skills and boosting operational confidence in vitreoretinal surgery training. In particular, bimanual instrumentation training offers significant educational value in the development of advanced microsurgical techniques.
