Can the superficial knotting skill training model improve the surgical preparation ability of medical students?
In medical education, the cultivation of surgical skills is very important. Superficial knotting is a common and basic operation in surgical operations, and its proficiency directly affects the smooth operation and the recovery of patients. As an effective teaching tool, can the superficial knotting skill training model improve the surgical preparation ability of medical students? The following is a discussion of this issue.
Shallow knotting skill training model
1. Provide opportunities for repetition
The superficial knotting skill training model provides medical students with the opportunity to practice repeatedly. Unlike traditional theoretical learning, models enable students to gradually master knot-tying skills in a stress-free environment. From the most basic knotting method to the complex knotting operation, students can continue to repeat exercises on the model, familiar with every detail, so as to accumulate practical experience. Through repeated training, medical students can become more confident and skilled in actual surgery, reduce tension, and improve the adequacy of surgical preparation.
2. Instant feedback and skill adjustment
Many superficial knotting skill training models are equipped with feedback systems that provide immediate guidance based on the student's actions. These feedback include knot tightness, symmetry, skill accuracy, etc., to help students find problems in operation and make adjustments in time. Data support allows participants to have a clear understanding of their strengths and weaknesses, so that they can continue to improve during the training process. Through this continuous feedback, participants are able to gradually improve their skill level, providing adequate assurance for surgical preparation.
3. Enhance hands-on ability and fluency
Superficial knotting skills require not only skill, but also hand-eye coordination and fine manipulation. The use of training model can effectively exercise the practical ability of medical students and improve their operational fluency. The design of the model usually simulates the texture and resistance of the human tissue, which can help the participant to establish the expectation and sensitivity of the hand feeling in the actual surgery. When students practice in the model, they are able to improve their ability to perform precise operations during surgery, thereby increasing their confidence and technical control in surgical preparation.
4. Reduce the anxiety of beginners in the operation
The preparation for surgery is often accompanied by great psychological pressure, especially for beginners. The superficial knotting skills training model helps medical students reduce this stress by practicing in a simulated environment, making them more comfortable in the face of real surgery. By gaining experience with the model, participants can gain a clearer understanding of their technical mastery, thereby reducing anxiety during surgery and improving psychological quality and resilience.
Data support:
One study found that medical students who trained using the superficial knotting skills training model, in practice, tied knots about 30 percent faster and made 20 percent fewer errors. In addition, the trained participants showed higher confidence in the actual operation, reducing the interruption caused by unskilled operation.
The superficial knotting skill training model not only helps medical students get familiar with basic surgical skills, but also improves their surgical preparation ability through repeated practice and immediate feedback. It provides a risk-free and controllable training platform for students to improve the fluency and accuracy of the operation by gradually mastering the knotting skills. Through this teaching model, medical students can be more comfortable and confident in future surgeries, thereby improving the efficiency and safety of the entire surgical team.
