Abstract

This pilot study has demonstrated the usefulness of smart glasses and the unique POV perspective for suturing skills, and potentially other surgical skills, training in medical students by enhancing self- reflection and feedback. Although there are current limitations and pitfalls, we are optimistic that smart glasses can improve the learner’s acquisition of a variety of surgical skills.
