Learning from errors: simulator study tests if flawed training boosts surgical skills
NCT ID NCT06729372
First seen Jan 31, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 12 times
Summary
This study explored whether showing medical students deliberately flawed surgical techniques during simulation training helps them learn better than only seeing correct techniques. 70 medical students from the University of Copenhagen participated. The goal was to see if learning from errors improves skill retention and the ability to perform similar procedures in a new setting.
