LaparoS

Laparoscopic Training Simulation

LaparoS

High-fidelity laparoscopic training for surgeons, registrars, and clinical education programs.

LaparoS™ is a high-fidelity laparoscopic surgical training simulator designed to support structured skills development and procedural training across general surgery and related specialties.

LaparoS enables surgeons, trainees, and clinical education programs to practise laparoscopic techniques in a realistic, risk-free environment that closely mirrors the operating room.

The system combines anatomically accurate models, real surgical instruments, and advanced haptic feedback to replicate the visual, tactile, and cognitive demands of laparoscopic surgery. LaparoS supports competency-based training with objective performance metrics, guided exercises, and modular curricula suitable for hospitals, universities, and surgical colleges.

Features

LaparoS delivers a highly realistic laparoscopic training experience through advanced haptic feedback, objective performance metrics, and an intuitive user interface. The system combines powerful graphics with immersive simulation technology to support competency-based surgical education in a safe, controlled environment.

LaparoS™ Modules

LaparoS™ Core Skills

LaparoS™ Core Skills provides structured training in essential laparoscopic techniques, including camera navigation, hand–eye coordination, depth perception, and instrument handling. Trainees develop foundational skills required for safe and efficient minimally invasive surgery.

Exercises focus on precision, efficiency, and bimanual coordination, supporting early skill acquisition and progression toward procedural training.

LaparoS™ Procedural Training

LaparoS™ supports a wide range of laparoscopic procedures across general surgery and related specialties. Trainees can practise complete procedural workflows, reinforcing anatomical orientation, surgical planning, and step-by-step execution.

Realistic scenarios allow users to develop technical consistency and procedural confidence in a controlled, risk-free environment.

LaparoS™ Suturing & Tissue Handling

Advanced suturing and tissue manipulation modules enable trainees to practice delicate tasks such as intracorporeal suturing, knot tying, and atraumatic tissue handling.

High-fidelity haptic feedback and realistic tissue behavior help replicate the tactile challenges of live laparoscopic surgery, supporting the transition from simulation to clinical practice.

LaparoS™ Performance Assessment

LaparoS™ integrates objective performance metrics to support competency-based training. Trainees receive structured feedback on precision, efficiency, and error rates, enabling targeted improvement and consistent skill evaluation.

This data-driven approach allows educators to benchmark performance, track progress over time, and standardise laparoscopic training across programs.

We have been very interested in improving patient care through learning and essentially rehearsing the procedures before we treat the patients.

Using advanced simulation techniques similar to what pilots use, we are able to take patient specific information and rehearse the procedure before we actually perform the real procedure.

Simulators will have a place in the future to plan a procedure.

They are not only for training. They allow us to look at the anatomy and try devices before we actually start the procedure.

I remember my days as a new intern….the first cases I performed were very difficult and it was a scary experience, since it takes between 10-20 procedures until you really feel that you are proficient.

With today’s technological advances we have the ability to train doctors on full procedures using medical simulators as advanced as the Simbionix ANGIO Mentor, prior to having them perform on live patients. By providing this opportunity, the learning curve is significantly shortened and trainees gain confidence before they approach their first cases.

I want to emphatically state that simulated laparoscopic training with LapSim should be a cornerstone of surgeon training and absolutely contributes to patient safety.

In the last 25 years, I have organized about 50 courses in practical surgery for residents and specialists in Obstetrics and Gynecology. In the courses involving laparoscopy, LapSim has been used to a significant extent for training and evaluation. With the extensive scientific documentation available, and based on my many years of experience with LapSim, I want to emphatically state that simulated laparoscopic training with LapSim should be a cornerstone of surgeon training and absolutely contributes to patient safety.
