Mirror laryngoscopy is challenging for medical students to learn. Anatomic models improve familiarity with laryngeal anatomy, accelerating patient-based skill acquisition.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Otolaryngology
  • Anatomy

Background:

  • Indirect mirror laryngoscopy is a crucial diagnostic skill.
  • Learning mirror laryngoscopy presents significant challenges for medical students.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce an anatomic model of the oropharynx and larynx.
  • To enhance medical students' proficiency in mirror laryngoscopy.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a novel oropharyngeal and laryngeal anatomic model.
  • Utilizing the model for initial familiarization with laryngoscopy techniques.

Main Results:

  • Students demonstrated increased familiarity with laryngoscopy components.
  • Accelerated progression to competency in patient-based mirror laryngoscopy.
