Voici une lettre de notre stagiaire d'\u00e9t\u00e9, MacCoy Weil, qui sera en premi\u00e8re ann\u00e9e \u00e0 l'American University de Londres cet automne. Un grand merci \u00e0 MacCoy pour sa contribution pendant son s\u00e9jour au bureau de HelpMeSee \u00e0 New York.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

On estime que la cataracte est responsable de la c\u00e9cit\u00e9 totale d'environ 20 millions de personnes dans le monde et des troubles graves de la vision d'environ 80 millions d'autres. HelpMeSee a pour mission de restaurer la vision du plus grand nombre possible de ces malheureux, dont beaucoup vivent dans des r\u00e9gions pauvres sans acc\u00e8s aux soins m\u00e9dicaux ophtalmologiques.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Pour mener \u00e0 bien cette mission, HelpMeSee, dirig\u00e9e par son PDG, M. Jacob Mohan Thazhathu, dispose d'une \u00e9quipe de 41 personnes uniques et talentueuses r\u00e9parties dans le monde entier. En outre, en tant qu'organisation \u00e0 but non lucratif, la majeure partie de son financement provient de dons philanthropiques, mais elle d\u00e9veloppe \u00e9galement un programme de formation. Les fonds collect\u00e9s par cette branche de l'organisation seront utilis\u00e9s pour former des sp\u00e9cialistes dans les pays en voie de d\u00e9veloppement.\u00a0Chirurgie de la cataracte par petite incision manuelle<\/a>. Au cours des deux derni\u00e8res semaines, j'ai eu le privil\u00e8ge de travailler avec la plupart de ces personnes inspirantes et intelligentes qui se sont r\u00e9unies pour former l'entreprise HelpMeSee qui continue \u00e0 faire une diff\u00e9rence positive dans le monde.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

D\u00e8s mon arriv\u00e9e, l'une des premi\u00e8res choses que j'ai faites a \u00e9t\u00e9 de me familiariser non seulement avec le bureau et mes nouveaux coll\u00e8gues, mais aussi avec le fonctionnement interne du simulateur. J'ai \u00e9t\u00e9 imm\u00e9diatement captiv\u00e9e par ces glorieuses machines et j'ai d\u00e9sesp\u00e9r\u00e9ment voulu en savoir plus. \u00c0 ma grande surprise, Anthony DeSantis, technicien en simulation biom\u00e9dicale, n'a pas h\u00e9sit\u00e9 non plus et nous nous sommes directement mis au travail.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Avant de poser le doigt sur quoi que ce soit, on m'a pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 l'histoire de HelpMeSee et le d\u00e9veloppement de son syst\u00e8me de gestion de l'information.\u00a0Simulateur de chirurgie oculaire<\/a>. De nombreux mod\u00e8les ont pr\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9 celui que j'ai sous les yeux aujourd'hui, mais m\u00eame la version la plus primitive d\u00e9passait la plupart des normes technologiques ophtalmologiques. Si Anthony demandait \u00e0 mon moi sans m\u00e9fiance depuis combien de temps je pensais que la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 existait en regardant son \"mus\u00e9e miniature\", je peux vous garantir que j'aurais devin\u00e9 environ 15 \u00e0 20 ans. Je sais maintenant que cette supposition aurait \u00e9t\u00e9 largement erron\u00e9e. Je m'\u00e9loigne du sujet ; ce que j'essaie de faire comprendre \u00e0 partir de mon exp\u00e9rience ici, c'est que le rythme de changement et de croissance de cette entreprise est incroyable. Les simulateurs n'existaient m\u00eame pas les deux premi\u00e8res ann\u00e9es ! Ensuite, j'ai commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 d\u00e9couvrir toutes les composantes du simulateur.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

I never anticipated that so many other companies had to work with HelpMeSee in creating both the Simulator\u2019s hardware and software. Moog is a company that is based in Amsterdam and specializes in creating high-performance motion control solutions. They played an especially integral part in creating the Eye Surgery Simulators<\/a> because they were essentially the \u201carchitects\u201d that brought the HelpMeSee idea to life. In the very beginning, we came to Moog and asked them to help and create a Simulator for us (with their haptics technology included). They agreed, and we gave them specific guidelines and criteria. Moog was then able to make everything that we asked for, but because they were only a haptic technology company, extra help was needed. SenseGraphics, Insimo, and Harman were all brought in to help with the graphics, physics, SIA, SBLS, and more. Moog was the original link, but today HelpMeSee works directly with the other three companies. What an incredible array of work coming together! Finally, more connections were made with other businesses because there were certain parts that we needed. Long story short, by the end of my first day, I already had a great appreciation for work that went into making the Simulator that I have been privileged to use every day.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Le deuxi\u00e8me jour, ma le\u00e7on d'histoire s'est achev\u00e9e, mais lorsqu'une porte se ferme, une autre s'ouvre. Nous avons commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 analyser le simulateur qui se trouvait devant nous et \u00e0 examiner son fonctionnement. Le simulateur chirurgical actuel de HelpMeSee contient de nombreux \u00e9l\u00e9ments diff\u00e9rents. Les pi\u00e8ces les plus remarquables sont les 3 PC, une puce graphique de la taille d'une pi\u00e8ce de dix cents et 2 pi\u00e8ces \u00e0 main polyvalentes avec retour haptique en temps r\u00e9el. Les PC contr\u00f4lent le temps r\u00e9el et la simulation en convertissant les signaux analogiques en signaux num\u00e9riques. Ils assurent \u00e9galement la coordination avec l'interface utilisateur. Il s'agit d'une tr\u00e8s petite quantit\u00e9 d'informations (et il y a une pl\u00e9thore de choses que je n'ai pas mentionn\u00e9es et que je ne connais pas), mais le temps que j'ai pass\u00e9 \u00e0 saisir les fondements du simulateur le deuxi\u00e8me jour s'est av\u00e9r\u00e9 pr\u00e9cieux pour le reste de la dur\u00e9e de mon programme de b\u00e9n\u00e9volat. En fait, j'ai r\u00e9ussi le test de qualification pour la \" formation \u00e0 la technologie du simulateur niveau 1 \", ce qui signifie que j'ai soi-disant suffisamment de connaissances pour \u00eatre instructeur ou d\u00e9monstrateur (c'est probablement vrai parce que j'ai fait de nombreuses d\u00e9monstrations au cours des deux semaines !)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Je suis incroyablement reconnaissant \u00e0 Anthony de m'avoir transmis une fraction de sa sagesse. Il sait tout ce qu'il y a \u00e0 savoir sur le simulateur et apprendre de lui a rendu mon exp\u00e9rience encore plus m\u00e9morable ! M\u00eame avec un iota de connaissances accumul\u00e9es, je peux compl\u00e8tement calibrer le simulateur, l'allumer et atteindre un point o\u00f9 je peux faire une op\u00e9ration moi-m\u00eame (mal si je peux ajouter !), et d\u00e9panner en cas de probl\u00e8me.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Au fur et \u00e0 mesure que j'acqu\u00e9rais des connaissances et des informations, je me suis lanc\u00e9e dans une aventure qui allait faire de mes deux semaines les plus fructueuses : r\u00e9aliser moi-m\u00eame le MSCIS sur le simulateur. J'ai absorb\u00e9 tout ce que je pouvais g\u00e9rer sur l'anatomie de l'\u0153il, les termes de la chirurgie et la fa\u00e7on de r\u00e9aliser certaines parties de l'op\u00e9ration. J'ai fait preuve d'une grande humilit\u00e9, car d\u00e8s que j'ai commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 trouver du r\u00e9confort dans ma compr\u00e9hension primitive du simulateur, je me suis retrouv\u00e9e \u00e0 la case d\u00e9part. Contrairement \u00e0 ce que certains pourraient penser, ce n'\u00e9tait pas quelque chose \u00e0 redouter. En fait, j'ai \u00e9t\u00e9 ravie d'apprendre que j'aurais l'occasion d'apprendre aupr\u00e8s d'une experte dans son domaine, le Dr Mina Baldota. Je suis tr\u00e8s reconnaissante \u00e0 HelpMeSee de ne pas avoir \u00e9teint ma soif de connaissances, mais d'avoir attis\u00e9 encore plus ma curiosit\u00e9.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Avant tout, pour que je comprenne vraiment ce que j'allais faire, j'avais besoin d'une base solide (que je n'avais pas du fait de mon manque d'exp\u00e9rience m\u00e9dicale). Par cons\u00e9quent, les recherches sur les MSCIS, les astigmatismes, les images anatomiques de l'\u0153il et l'examen d'un mod\u00e8le physique m'ont fourni certains des outils n\u00e9cessaires pour commencer \u00e0 apprendre. Les\u00a0Manuel de chirurgie de la cataracte par petite incision eBook<\/a> \u00e9tait \u00e9galement excellent ; la grande vari\u00e9t\u00e9 de multim\u00e9dias et l'interface utilisateur conviviale m'ont permis d'\u00e9tudier facilement (tout en le lisant, j'ai \u00e9galement donn\u00e9 mon avis et montr\u00e9 \u00e0 Hina un probl\u00e8me mineur que j'avais d\u00e9cel\u00e9 !)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Lors de mon premier jour de formation,\u00a0Dr. Minal Baldota<\/a> et j'ai eu un appel Zoom avec le Dr Daniel Hutter, pour qu'il puisse critiquer et aider le Dr Minal sur la fa\u00e7on dont j'\u00e9tais enseign\u00e9e. De mon c\u00f4t\u00e9, j'utilisais toutes mes capacit\u00e9s mentales pour me souvenir et utiliser ce que j'avais r\u00e9cemment \u00e9tudi\u00e9 dans le simulateur. Heureusement, le Dr Minal a eu la gentillesse de revoir avec moi certains concepts et certaines parties de l'op\u00e9ration avant que nous ne commencions. Je me suis bien amus\u00e9e, car j'essayais constamment d'assimiler le labyrinthe d'informations m\u00e9dicales dans lequel j'\u00e9tais plong\u00e9e. Personne n'essayait de me faire perdre du temps et nous avons continu\u00e9 \u00e0 passer en revue les diff\u00e9rentes parties de l'op\u00e9ration. Ma premi\u00e8re journ\u00e9e dans le monde de la chirurgie a \u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e0 la fois m\u00e9morable, remplie d'erreurs et tr\u00e8s amusante.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Je dois au Dr Minal mes remerciements les plus sinc\u00e8res pour avoir r\u00e9guli\u00e8rement pris la majeure partie de sa journ\u00e9e pour m'enseigner et me montrer ce que signifie \u00eatre un chirurgien. Je n'oublierai pas mes connaissances m\u00e9dicales ni mes exp\u00e9riences, car mon travail acharn\u00e9 et mes excellents souvenirs sont d\u00e9j\u00e0 fermement ancr\u00e9s dans mon cerveau.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Je n'ai que peu ou pas de connaissances m\u00e9dicales, je travaille ici depuis un clin d'\u0153il et je n'ai pourtant aucun mal \u00e0 reconna\u00eetre cette opportunit\u00e9. Il y a de nombreuses raisons pour lesquelles je suis tout \u00e0 fait d'accord avec cette conclusion.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Tout d'abord, l'histoire est prometteuse : la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 m\u00e8re de HelpMeSee, FlightSafety, a suivi une voie tr\u00e8s similaire (sauf pour former des pilotes d'avion). Les deux entreprises n'ont pratiquement pas de concurrents et un vaste public dans le besoin. Par cons\u00e9quent, la cr\u00e9ativit\u00e9 et le travail acharn\u00e9 de ces deux entreprises pionni\u00e8res leur ont permis d'\u00eatre \u00e0 la pointe de la technologie. Si HelpMeSee maintient son rythme de croissance et d'expansion, je ne vois pas d'obstacles majeurs qui pourraient l'\u00e9carter de la vague de l'avenir.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Deuxi\u00e8mement, la mise en \u0153uvre de la formation \u00e0 la simulation chirurgicale pour la MSICS (Manual Small Incision Cataract Surgery) offre aux professionnels de la sant\u00e9 et aux \u00e9tudiants de nombreux avantages par rapport \u00e0 une liste d'inconv\u00e9nients presque inexistante. J'aime \u00e0 consid\u00e9rer les simulateurs HelpMeSee comme des machines \u00e0 remonter le temps ; lorsque l'on op\u00e8re sur un v\u00e9ritable \u0153il, un \u0153il de cochon ou une tomate (n'importe quoi d'autre en fait), on peut magiquement r\u00e9parer ses erreurs ou revenir en arri\u00e8re lorsque l'on fait ce qu'il ne faut pas faire ? Malheureusement, les capacit\u00e9s technologiques du monde sont d\u00e9pass\u00e9es par la notion de voyage dans le temps ! Mais nos simulateurs sont ce qui se rapproche le plus d'un \"recommencement\". La possibilit\u00e9 d'effectuer certaines parties ou l'ensemble du MSCIS autant qu'on le souhaite est un outil incroyable. Contrairement \u00e0 d'innombrables exemples dans l'histoire o\u00f9 nous n'apprenons pas de nos erreurs, la formation sur simulateur facilite \u00e9galement l'auto-analyse et l'introspection. Imaginez que tous les \u00e9tudiants en m\u00e9decine des \u00c9tats-Unis s'entra\u00eenent sur ces simulateurs lorsqu'ils apprennent le MSCIS. Et si chaque \u00e9tudiant pouvait accumuler des centaines d'heures d'exp\u00e9rience avant de toucher un \u0153il r\u00e9el. Je suis pr\u00eat \u00e0 parier ma vie que si cela se produisait, les taux de comp\u00e9tence chirurgicale augmenteraient consid\u00e9rablement tandis que le nombre d'erreurs chuterait.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

As shown, there seems to be a compelling argument for the utilization of surgery simulators, but this is just the beginning. HelpMeSee focuses on the MSCIS, but there are numerous kinds of cataract operations such as the Phaco\u00e9mulsification<\/a> (\u201cPhaco\u201d) and ECCE operations. Therefore, simulators could not only be used for cataract surgeries, but for all kinds of operations. I hope that one day, my great-grandchildren can live in a world where there are training simulators for every kind of surgery.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

M\u00eame avec ces informations \u00e0 l'esprit, le calendrier semble rester une \u00e9nigme. Je ne sais pas si cette pr\u00e9diction se r\u00e9alisera dans un jour, un mois, une ann\u00e9e ou une d\u00e9cennie, mais avec pr\u00e8s de cent millions de personnes dans le monde qui sont malvoyantes \u00e0 cause de la cataracte, les simulations chirurgicales peuvent changer le monde. Plus nous nous entra\u00eenons, plus nous aidons et grandissons.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Je me sens redevable \u00e0 de nombreuses personnes ; \u00e0 chaque personne qui a eu la chance de me croiser, merci d'avoir contribu\u00e9 \u00e0 m'offrir le stage de ma vie. J'ai l'impression d'\u00eatre ici depuis toujours. L'environnement dont j'ai eu la chance de faire partie est quelque chose que je n'avais jamais vu auparavant. D\u00e8s mon arriv\u00e9e, je me suis sentie accueillie et j'ai su que j'\u00e9tais sur le point de m'embarquer pour un voyage vraiment sp\u00e9cial. Cette entreprise est loin d'avoir atteint son plein potentiel, mais au fil du temps, je ne manquerai pas de suivre de pr\u00e8s la fa\u00e7on dont HelpMeSee r\u00e9volutionne la technologie m\u00e9dicale et l'ensemble du secteur des soins de sant\u00e9.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
