They then were randomized to undergo 90 to 120\u2009minutes of either simulator-based (SIM) or swine cadaveric-tissue-based (CADAVER) corneal laceration repair. The same evaluation was performed post training. On a more limited basis, the study was repeated for attending ophthalmologists to act as a pilot for future analysis and test efficacy for \u201crefresher\u201d training.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Main Outcome Measures\u2003Successful wound closure with secondary outcomes of suture length, tension, depth, and orientation, as graded by attending ophthalmologists.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Results\u2003No significant difference in CADAVER versus SIM groups in the primary outcome of watertight wound closure of the corneal laceration. CADAVER group performed better than SIM group for certain metrics (suture depth, p\u2009=\u20090.009; length, p\u2009=\u20090.003; and tension, p\u2009=\u20090.043) that are associated with poor wound closure and increased amount of induced corneal astigmatism. For attending ophthalmologists, six of the eight in each group (SIM and CADAVER) retained or improved their skills.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Conclusions\u2003For resident ophthalmologists, SIM training is sufficient for achieving the primary outcome of watertight wound closure. However, CADAVER training is superior for wound metrics for the ideal closure. For attending ophthalmologists, SIM training may be useful for retention of skills.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0041-1725093","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,20]],"date-time":"2021-04-20T21:31:14Z","timestamp":1618954274000},"page":"e57-e65","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Comparison
