Popis: |
Conjunctival closure is an important step in strabismus surgery and a fundamental surgical skill that requires dexterity and understanding of general surgical principles. Traditionally, ophthalmology residents have improved their surgical technique in supervised wet labs. Social distancing guidelines during the COVID-19 pandemic may have limited the ability for direct supervised surgical teaching. We developed a safe, reusable, low-cost teaching module that allows residents to train independently to develop skills necessary for conjunctival closure. This module uses stepwise teaching and video instruction to improve resident confidence and preparedness in conjunctival suturing. |
