This study introduces a low-cost simulation model and video for teaching loop electrosurgical excision procedures. This accessible training tool enhances surgical skills for students and practitioners.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Surgical Simulation
  • Gynecologic Procedures

Background:

  • Simulation training is crucial for developing operative skills.
  • Loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) requires specialized training.
  • Existing training models can be costly and complex.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and present a simple, low-cost simulation model for teaching the loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP).
  • To create an accompanying instructional video detailing LEEP techniques using the model.
  • To provide an accessible training resource for medical education.

Main Methods:

  • Construction of a LEEP simulation model using common materials like polyvinyl chloride pipe and sausages.
  • Development of an instructional video demonstrating LEEP techniques, challenges, and prevention strategies.
