Abstract While previous research has explored the connection between video gaming and medical procedures, studies on bronchoscopy techniques are lacking. This study aimed to investigate how experience influences skills, particularly among beginners. was conducted at Fukujuji Hospital from January 2021 October 2023. Twenty-three participants were assigned inexperienced group, eighteen experienced group. The observational time during bronchoscopy, measured using a simulator, playing of SPLATOON 2 (NINTENDO Co. Ltd., Japan) analyzed. Video skills assessed based game completion time, with shorter times indicating faster task completion. Participants also divided into gamer nongamer subgroups for further comparisons. A moderate linear relationship existed bronchoscopic observation in group (r = 0.453, p 0.030). However, no correlation found 0.268, 0.283). Among subgroup (n 12) exhibited significantly than did 11) (median [range]: 200 [129–229] s) vs. 281 [184–342] s, 0.005). demonstrated technique individuals little experience.
