Surgeons who regularly play video games scored >40% better on skill assessments than those who don’t, in a recent study.
Surgeons With Video Game Skill Appear To Perform Better In Simulated Surgery Skills Course
In a study involving 12 surgeons and 21 surgical residents, video game skill was correlated with laparoscopic surgery skill as assessed during a simulated surgery skills course, according to a report in the February issue of Archives of Surgery, one of the JAMA/Archives journals.

Was expecting a Duelsense controller but it looks like he's using an old PS3 "navigation" nunchuck style controller.
Too soon

They should use an Xbox controller and promote this to rich surgeons.

That's nothing. It's when your physician brings out a Logitech controller that you should be worried.

That was the first thing I thought of. Stop for a brow wipe because no one anticipated stick drift and all of a sudden Doctor Itor is working on the other kidney

There's roughly 240ms of latency between Switzerland and Hong Kong each time they move something.
One wrong move and that boy pig......

That’s one situation where you don’t want to have lag. I can see the people at the other side of the world teabaging your now dead patient.

Tragically, the surgery was over before Sony could think of a way to monetise the shit out of it.

It's funny how you people think this is stupid and the controller isn't good enough where:
1) Familiarity with the controller reduces human error by a ton, which is probably the main reason why something can go wrong
2) They are definitely accounting for hardware defects via software and by testing. So no, it won't drift and cut the patient in half lol

That's not true. Unless they use some other technology like the hall effect sensors, the stick drift issues won't significantly improve. Every DualSense will get stick drift eventually, if you use it enough. It also depends on the types of games you are playing.
