Establishment of making cystoscope training model with rapid prototyping technology and research on its train-ing method / 局解手术学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the feasibility of making cystoscope training model with rapid prototyping technology and its training method in cystoscope operation. Methods Constructed a cystoscope training model, and designed a set of corresponding training methods ac-cording to the process and behavioral essentials of cystoscope operation. Selected 20 students who have never learned cystoscope operation and trained them with the new designed cystoscope training mode and training methods, and the training results were verified. Results Compared before and after the training, the operation time of all the trainees were significantly shortened, and their operation steps and skills were more proficient. Conclusion Cystoscope training model can help beginners to grasp the theoretical basis of cystoscopy, operation steps, and behavioral essentials, so as to shorten the learning curve of the cystoscope operation.
