Dr. Mario?

According to this Reuters report, a new study suggests that surgeons who played games like “Super Monkey Ball” for 20 minutes just before performing surgery were faster and made fewer mistakes than those who did not. The study, conducted by Beth Israel Medical Center in New York City involved 303 surgeons who were in medical training courses focusing on laparoscopic surgical procedures — which require the doctor to navigate a tiny video camera and surgical instruments through small incisions. Rosser, director of the Advanced Medical Technology Institute at Beth Israel compares it to “trying to tie your shoe laces with three-foot-long chopsticks while watching on a TV screen.”
