There are specific simulators for various techniques of urological and endoscopic and laparoscopic surgery.

It is therefore needed to carry out external validation thereof by means of reliability studies.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0040"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">8</span></a> The assessment of discriminant validity is the easiest way to perform this type of studies.

Discriminative validity is evaluated to determine factors associated with competences in a population of specialists in urology, resident physicians in training and medical undergraduate students.

Despite the limited number of surgeons evaluated, a correlation between the tested efficacy parameters and the different experience groups is shown. This simulation model has therefore discriminative validity, and it is a good tool for training in skills and as an OSCE tool for doctors and residents in training. Repeating the procedure allows for rapid learning to better face surgery. Surgeons with spatial orientation skills do better than those in whom this ability is less developed or exercised. For professionals involved (experts or specialists in training), there are no major differences in the acquisition of learning according to the previous level of experience, which shows that it is a simple technique. The sequential repetition of the procedure in increasing levels of difficulty promotes learning. The main problems of simulation models, such as the one that we evaluate in this paper, reside in their limited availability and the high cost of developing them.</p></span><span id="sec0040" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0100">Conflict of interest</span><p id="par0100" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The authors declare that they have no conflict of interest.</p></span></span>" "textoCompletoSecciones" => array:1 [ "secciones" => array:13 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "xres364419" "titulo" => array:5 [ 0 => "Abstract" 1 => "Objective" 2 => "Materials and methods" 3 => "Results" 4 => "Conclusion" ] ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "xpalclavsec344023" "titulo" => "Keywords" ] 2 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "xres364420" "titulo" => array:5 [ 0 => "Resumen" 1 => "Objetivo" 2 => "Material y método" 3 => "Resultados" 4 => "Conclusión" ] ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "xpalclavsec344024" "titulo" => "Palabras clave" ] 4 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0005" "titulo" => "Introduction" ] 5 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "sec0010" "titulo" => "Materials and methods" "secciones" => array:1 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0015" "titulo" => "Virtual reality simulator" ] ] ] 6 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0020" "titulo" => "Study design" ] 7 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0025" "titulo" => "Statistical analysis" ] 8 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0030" "titulo" => "Results" ] 9 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0035" "titulo" => "Discussion" ] 10 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0040" "titulo" => "Conflict of interest" ] 11 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "xack90754" "titulo" => "Acknowledgments" ] 12 => array:1 [ "titulo" => "References" ] ] ] "pdfFichero" => "main.pdf" "tienePdf" => true "fechaRecibido" => "2014-02-14" "fechaAceptado" => "2014-02-19" "PalabrasClave" => array:2 [ "en" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "clase" => "keyword" "titulo" => "Keywords" "identificador" => "xpalclavsec344023" "palabras" => array:5 [ 0 => "Diode laser" 1 => "Prostate vaporization" 2 => "Computer simulation" 3 => "Medical education" 4 => "Objective structured clinical evaluation" ] ] ] "es" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "clase" => "keyword" "titulo" => "Palabras clave" "identificador" => "xpalclavsec344024" "palabras" => array:5 [ 0 => "Láser de diodo" 1 => "Vaporización prostática" 2 => "Simulación por ordenador" 3 => "Educación médica" 4 => "Evaluación clínica objetiva estructurada" ] ] ] ] "tieneResumen" => true "resumen" => array:2 [ "en" => array:2 [ "titulo" => "Abstract" "resumen" => "<span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0010">Objective</span><p id="spar0025" class="elsevierStyleSimplePara elsevierViewall">The utility of a virtual reality simulator for training of the photoselective vaporization of the prostate with diode laser was studied.</p> <span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0015">Materials and methods</span><p id="spar0030" class="elsevierStyleSimplePara elsevierViewall">Two experiments were performed with a simulator (VirtaMed AG, Zürich, Switzerland) with software for specific training in prostate vaporization in contact mode with Twister fiber (Biolitec AG, Jena, German).
