Area of Science:

  • Surgical Simulation
  • Medical Device Development
  • Cleft Palate Repair

Background:

  • Cleft palate surgery requires specialized skills due to complex intraoral anatomy.
  • Current training methods lack dedicated simulators for practicing intraoral sutures.
  • Need for accessible, realistic training tools for surgeons.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate an anatomically accurate, low-cost simulator for cleft palate intraoral suture practice.
  • To provide a training tool for surgeons in teaching hospitals managing cleft palate.

Main Methods:

  • Designed a simulator using precise anatomical data, incorporating a steel pipe for the oral cavity and a split spoon for the palate.
  • The simulator components are removable for applying hydrocellular dressings to mimic surgical conditions.
  • Evaluated the simulator's anatomical accuracy through testing by three senior surgeons under near real-life conditions.

Main Results:

  • The developed simulator is anatomically accurate for practicing cleft palate sutures.
  • The simulator is cost-effective and easy to construct.
  • Surgeons validated its utility in near real-life surgical training scenarios.

Conclusions:

  • A valuable, low-cost, and anatomically accurate simulator for cleft palate suture training is now available.
  • This simulator can enhance surgical training in university hospitals managing cleft palate.
  • It addresses the current gap in dedicated simulation materials for this specific surgical skill.
