Book synopsis

Surgeons require considerable practice and time to §become competent in endoscopy. Traditionally, the §procedure has been taught at the expense of patient §comfort and safety, as residents have performed the §surgery under the supervision of physicians. §Patients who undergo endoscopies performed by §students, particularly early in the residency, have §been more likely to suffer discomfort and prolonged §procedures. Therefore, using simulators become a §promising alternative for the endoscopic training §process. Our approach is to integrate a realistic §mechanical model with the newly developed computer §software to create a computer-based simulator for §upper endoscopy training. The simulator covers the §basics of flexible endoscopy and helps the student §the skills required to perform an upper endoscopy. §This book will benefit medical educators by §providing them with an additional approach to train §medical students in surgery.
