Objectives: To develop a suprapubic catheter (SPC) training model as no specific realistic training model exists to replicate SPC exchange where a catheter tract is present.Materials and methods: We describe a novel, anatomically realistic, animal simulator model for use in SPC training, which was trialed at a national urology simulation boot camp by new urology trainees and validated by expert urologists. A scale reproduction of an abdominal wall was created using a porcine abdominal wall. A segment of small bowel was stitched around a size 16F Foley catheter to form a tract. Abdominal wall tissue was excised cylindrically to create an opening, and the small bowel tract was passed through the abdominal wall and sutured anteriorly, producing a realistic SPC tract: inferiorly, the tract was anastomosed to a porcine urinary bladder. This model was evaluated by 10 expert urologists for content validity with an 8-item 5-point rating scale used to evaluate domains relevant to the simulator.Results: The domains were scored between 1 and 5 by 10 expert urologists, 1 being "strongly disagree" and 5 being strongly agree. The average expert ratings of the domains were then calculated and tabulated following the training course. There was an average global rating of 4.2/5 for the model, with an average usefulness for training score of 4.6/5.Conclusion: The feedback from experts and trainees (informal) was overwhelmingly positive. On average, our experts reported high satisfaction with their experience using this simulator as a training tool. (C) 2020 AEU. Published by Elsevier Espana, S.L.U. All rights reserved.
