目的模拟课程是外科实习生手术室内体验式学习的有效补充。FLOW双反Z成形术(DOZ)在腭裂修复中仍然是一种重要且具有挑战性的外科技术，但目前的模拟有限。本研究旨在开发一种低成本且易于推广的混合学习模块。方法通过比较常见的啮齿动物实验动物和容易获得的猪舌，选择理想的动物进行手术模拟，并开发了DOZ学习模块。口腔外科住院医师被招募参加混合学习模块。一份课后问卷和一份测验分发给参与者，以收集他们对课程看法的反馈并评估他们的学习结果。结果猪舌在模拟人类软腭方面比普通实验动物具有更大的优势。在猪舌上可以很好地设计和模拟DOZ的手术过程。绝大多数参与者喜欢该学习模块，认为它有助于理解Doz的原则和程序。在猪舌模拟器的帮助下，混合式学习模块帮助参与者掌握DOZ程序的设计原则，促进他们的联想学习。结论结合猪舌头模拟器的混合式学习模块可以帮助口腔外科住院医师掌握DOZ腭裂成形术的原理和步骤。
PurposeSimulation course serves as an efficient supplement to the experiential learning inside the operation room in surgical residency programs. Furlow double-opposing Z-plasty (DOZ) remains an important and challenging surgical technique in cleft palate repair, but the simulation is currently limited. This study aims to develop a blended learning module with low-cost and easy-to-promote DOZ simulation. MethodsComparison among the common rodent experimental animals and the readily available porcine tongue was made to select the ideal animal for surgical simulation, with which a DOZ learning module was developed. Oral surgery residents were enrolled to attend the blended learning module. An after-session questionnaire and a quiz were distributed to the participants to collect their feedback of the course perceptions and to assess their learning outcomes. ResultsThe porcine tongue had more advantages in simulating the human soft palate over the common experimental animals. The surgical procedure of DOZ could be well designed and simulated on the porcine tongue. The vast majority of the participant liked the learning module regarded it as beneficial for the comprehension if DOZ principles and procedures. With the help of the porcine tongue simulator, the blended learning module helped the participants grasp the designing principles of DOZ procedure and promote their associative learning. ConclusionsThe blended learning module incorporating the porcine tongue simulator can help oral surgery residents master the principles and procedures of DOZ palatoplasty.
