Popis: | Objectives/Hypothesis To develop a low-cost, easy-to-construct model for education in transcervical laryngeal injection techniques. To validate the simulator among both fellowship-trained laryngologists and otolaryngology resident learners. Study Design Survey. Methods A transcervical laryngeal injection model was constructed. Fourteen otolaryngology residents used the model to practice vocal fold injection techniques. Survey feedback was obtained from all residents. Results Most learners agreed or strongly agreed that the simulator was easy to use (93%), was a good method to learn transcervical laryngeal injection technique (79%), improved their confidence with the procedure (78%), and could be applied to patients (72%). One hundred percent of the learners agreed or strongly agreed that they would recommend the simulator to other learners. Conclusion Residents can be taught transcervical laryngeal injection techniques with a low-cost, easily constructed simulator prior to treating patients. This allows for a low-stress environment in which the learner can practice injection techniques. Resident feedback about the transcervical laryngeal injection simulator was very positive, including unanimous recommendation for use in other learners. Level of Evidence N/A. Laryngoscope, 2015 |
