RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: ChatGPT is becoming very popular as an information source for the public. The adequacy of ChatGPT generated patient counseling material has not yet been extensively assessed. METHODS: ChatGPT was presented with perioperative counseling and complication questions regarding five different procedure, and accuracy of responses was assessed. The chat was then asked to present an explanation of each procedure, and quality of the responses were compared to online educational material. RESULTS: ChatGPT responses were comprehensive when discussing counseling points commonly discussed by a provider prior to a procedure. Responses to questions on surgical complications were less accurate and comprehensive. In comparison to online educational material, ChatGPT scored at or above the median SAM and PEMAT scores for all procedures. CONCLUSIONS: ChatGPT did well addressing basic counseling points during the perioperative period, although it did not perform as well when addressing surgical complications. Chat response quality was comparable to currently available online educational material.

OBJECTIVE: Three-dimensional (3D) endoscopy has been developed to provide depth perception to allow for improved visualisation during otolaryngology surgery. We conducted a systematic review to determine the surgical safety and efficacy of 3D endoscopy in comparison to two-dimensional (2D) endoscopy in performing otolaryngology procedures, and the role of 3D endoscopy as a training tool for novice otolaryngology surgeons. METHODS: Primary studies were identified through MEDLINE, Embase and Web of Science databases, which were searched for articles published through June 2022 that compared the outcomes of 2D and 3D endoscopy in otolaryngology surgical procedures or otolaryngology-relevant simulations. Candidate articles were independently reviewed by two authors. RESULTS: A total of 18 full-text articles met inclusion criteria for this study. In clinical trials (n = 8 studies, 362 subjects), there were no significant differences in performance time, intraoperative or postoperative complications with 3D endoscopes when compared to 2D. In simulation studies (n = 10 studies, 336 participants), 3D endoscopes demonstrated a decreased error rate (n = 5 studies) and shorter performance time (n = 3 studies). Studies also reported improved depth perception (n = 14 studies) and visualisation preference (n = 5 studies) with 3D over 2D systems. The 3D systems were found to have a shorter learning curve and better manoeuvrability among novice surgeons. CONCLUSION: 3D endoscopy showed equivalent safety and efficacy compared to 2D endoscopy in otolaryngology surgery. The improved depth perception and performance for novices using 3D endoscopes suggests the technology may be superior to 2D endoscopes as a training tool for otolaryngology surgeons.

Introducción: La formación de médicos especialistas en Otorrinolaringología es una necesidad en nuestro país, lo que debe incluir un aprendizaje de contenidos teóricos y adquisición de habilidades prácticas. Objetivo: Evaluar el cumplimiento de los objetivos prácticos planteados por el programa de formación de especialistas de la Escuela de Postgrado de la Universidad de Chile. Material y método: Estudio retrospectivo, descriptivo a partir de los libros del pabellón del Servicio de Otorrinolaringología del Hospital San Juan de Dios, en el período 1996-2007. Resultados: El cumplimiento global de los objetivos es de 57,3%. Discusión y conclusión: Diversos factores pueden explicar el resultado. Consideramos el más importante la falta de actualización del programa a los avances tecnológicos de la especialidad y a la realidad epidemiológica nacional.
Introduction. Adequate specialty training in otorhinolaryngology should include both theoretical learning and the acquisition of practical skills. Aim. To assess the practical skills objectives reached by the medical specialty training program at the University of Chile Postgraduate School. Material and method. Retrospective and descriptive study based on the surgical ward medical records of the Otorhinolaryngology Department of San Juan de Dios Hospital, between 1996 and 2007. Results. The overall rate of objectives reached was 57,3%. Discussion and conclusion. Several factors may account for the results. Most important in our view is the Program failure to keep updated according to the specialty new technological advances and the local epidemiological reality.

The Otolaryngology--Head and Neck Surgery training program of the University of Puerto Rico, Medical School, is enjoining a full accreditation by the Residency Review Committee of the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education. Since its foundation 76 Otolaryngologist--Head Neck surgeons have graduated, the first class was in 1962 and the last in June 1998, ten of them moved to the mainland where they practice or teach in renown universities. Our program is five year's durations, and it includes one year of general surgery and four years of progressive education in the specialty. Experience in the surgical sciences will precede the otolaryngology--head and neck surgery education, two residents are accepted each year
