Objective:
To investigate the effect of artificial intelligence (AI) in the otolaryngology standardized resident training of endoscopy.
Methods:
A total of 30 standardized training residents from the Department of Otolaryngology at Shenzhen Children's Hospital were selected from January 2022 to December 2024 and were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group. They underwent a 1 month endoscopic rotation. The control group received traditional lectures and endoscopic operation training. The experimental group, in addition to the conventional teaching methods, participants can confirm the diagnosis of common pediatric otolaryngology conditions through automatic diagnosis of AI model. The theoretical scores, practical skills assessments, and residents' satisfaction ratings of both groups were compared.
Results:
The theoretical and practical scores of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group (P < .05). Satisfaction rate with training in the experimental group was also significantly higher than that of the control group (P < .05). The experimental group demonstrated significantly-higher satisfaction levels than the control group in learning interest, learning efficiency, self-directed learning ability, endoscopic theoretical knowledge, endoscopic operational skills, and standardized endoscopic diagnostic reporting (P < .05).
Conclusions:
Compared with traditional teaching methods, AI-assisted endoscopy training system can help improve participant satisfaction and skills. More intelligent otolaryngology training models will be developed in the future.
