Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery
  • Surgical Innovation
  • Medical Technology Adoption

Background:

  • Endoscopic ear surgery (EES) is an emerging surgical technique.
  • Literature suggests EES offers advantages over traditional microscopic approaches.
  • Understanding Canadian otolaryngologists' views on EES is crucial.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the current adoption and status of EES in Canada.
  • To investigate the beliefs and concerns of Canadian otolaryngologists regarding EES.
  • To identify factors influencing the acceptance of EES.

Main Methods:

  • A cross-sectional survey was conducted among Canadian otolaryngologists.
  • The survey targeted members of the Canadian Society of Otolaryngology.
  • Data was collected via an online survey in 2015.

Main Results:

  • 70% of surveyed otolaryngologists use endoscopes, primarily for cholesteatoma or tympanoplasty.
  • Most current users employ the endoscope as an adjunct to microscopy.
  • 81% believe EES has a future role, and 53% plan to increase its use.
  • Earlier career stage and greater exposure correlate with positive EES attitudes.
  • Key concerns include one-handed surgery; perceived advantages include reduced residual disease.

Conclusions:

  • Endoscopic ear surgery is gaining traction in Canada.
  • There is significant enthusiasm for integrating EES into surgical practice.
  • Investment in training and guidance is essential for EES advancement.
