Loop electrosurgical excision procedure : An effective, inexpensive, and durable teaching model - 26/11/14
, A. Mitch Dizon, MD, Kristopher J. Kimball, MDAbstract |
The effectiveness of simulation training for enhancing operative skills is well established. Here we describe the construction of a simple, low-cost model for teaching the loop electrosurgical excision procedure. Composed of common materials such as polyvinyl chloride pipe and sausages, the simulation model, shown in the accompanying figure, can be easily reproduced by other training programs. In addition, we also present an instructional video that utilizes this model to review loop electrosurgical excision procedure techniques, highlighting important steps in the procedure and briefly addressing challenging situations and common mistakes as well as strategies to prevent them. The video and model can be used in conjunction with a simulation skills laboratory to teach the procedure to students, residents, and new practitioners.
