Simbionix' Gastric Bypass module helps surgeons familiar with laparoscopic surgery in learning, performing and mastering the specific tasks of this procedure in a safe and monitored environment.

This module provides real-life visual and tactile simulation of the key stages of the Gastric Bypass procedure: simulations of internal organs and bodily fluids, manipulation of tools and tool-organ interaction and deformation, including tissue cutting and anastomosis using a linear cutter.

It also features an assisting tool that allows the introduction of three or even four instruments into the scene at once.

Step-By-Step Mastery of Gastric Bypass Surgery

The user is guided, case by case, through the entire gastric bypass procedure- creation of the gastric pouch, measurement and division of the jejunum, gastrojejunal anastomosis and enteroenterostomy anastomosis.

A full array of virtual surgical instruments duplicates the activity and sensation of manipulating instruments in the various stages of the procedure.

Video clips of the actual procedure are accessible throughout the simulation.

The Gastric Bypass module provides all the built-in tools needed to assess skill acquisition and performance. Data is recorded and presented to maximize learning, skill acquisition and retention.
