Abstract：Objective To investigate the efficacy of simulated education based on virtual reality(VR)of shoulder and knee arthroscopic skills in residency training.Methods The medical educational articles dated from January 2010 to December 2022 were searched from Pubmed,Cochrane,VIP,CNKI and Wanfang database.Meta-analysis was performed by RevMan 5.3.Results 8 articles published in English and 2 articles published in Chinese were included.After VR simulated training,residents scored higher than those who received non-VR training.Meanwhile,residents in VR group had shorter camera path length and less cartilage injury than control group.The meta-analysis revealed that residents shortened time in the performance of diagnostic shoulder[WMD=70.26,95%CI(7.81,132.71),P<0.05]and knee[WMD=187.90,95%CI(162.96,212.85),P<0.05]arthroscopy compared with those without VR training.Conclusion The present analysis provides considerable evidence of the validity of VR simulated training,which helps residents manage basic arthroscopic skills.Therefore,VR training could be integrated in the curricula of residency training.
