Angle Closure Glaucoma: Treatment01:28

Angle Closure Glaucoma: Treatment

728
Angle-closure glaucoma, or closed-angle glaucoma, is an eye condition where the iris bulges out and blocks the iridocorneal angle, resulting in a buildup of aqueous humor and increased intraocular pressure. Immediate medical attention is necessary due to the sudden onset of symptoms. The treatment for angle-closure glaucoma includes short-term and long-term approaches. Short-term treatment involves using eye drops like pilocarpine to lower intraocular pressure by increasing aqueous humor...

Endoscopic Procedures III: Video Capsule Endoscopy

338
Capsule endoscopy, or wireless or video capsule endoscopy, is a diagnostic procedure for examining the entire gastrointestinal tract. Patients swallow a capsule about the size of a vitamin tablet. The capsule is equipped with a transmitter, a battery, an LED light source, and a color video camera to capture images throughout the gastrointestinal tract. This procedure is particularly useful for diagnosing conditions such as Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, tumors, polyps, ulcers,...

Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment01:27

Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment

602
In open-angle glaucoma, the iridocorneal angle remains open, but the trabecular meshwork becomes stiff, slowing down the outflow of aqueous humor. This causes a buildup of aqueous humor in the anterior chamber, leading to a sudden increase in intraocular pressure. The treatment for open-angle glaucoma focuses on reducing the elevated intraocular pressure by either decreasing the secretion of aqueous humor or increasing its outflow.
Drugs such as carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, α2- and...

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Surgical Education
  • Medical Simulation

Background:

  • Conjunctival closure is a critical skill in strabismus surgery.
  • Traditional surgical training relies on supervised wet labs.
  • COVID-19 pandemic restrictions limited direct surgical teaching opportunities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a safe, reusable, and low-cost teaching module for conjunctival closure.
  • To enable independent resident training in essential surgical skills.
  • To enhance resident preparedness and confidence in conjunctival suturing.

Main Methods:

  • Creation of a novel, cost-effective, and reusable conjunctival closure simulation module.
  • Implementation of a stepwise teaching approach.
  • Integration of video-based instruction for guided learning.

Main Results:

  • The module facilitates independent practice of conjunctival closure skills.
  • Residents can develop dexterity and understanding of surgical principles.
  • The training method aims to improve resident confidence and preparedness.

Conclusions:

  • The developed teaching module offers a viable solution for independent conjunctival closure training.
  • It addresses challenges posed by limited direct supervision in surgical education.
  • This approach supports the continuous development of fundamental surgical skills for ophthalmology residents.
