Application of 3D Printing Combined With APP Terminal in Orthopedic Teaching
Objective To investigate the efficacy of integrating 3D printed bone models with a mobile APP terminal in orthopedic teaching for clinical interns.Methods A total of 46 orthopedic interns from Yantai Affiliated Hospital of Binzhou Medical College from January 2022 to May 2022 were selected as the study subjects.According to student number,the students were randomly divided into the traditional teaching group and the experimental teaching group,with 23 students in each group.The traditional teaching method was adopted in the traditional teaching group,and the 3D printed bone model combined with mobile APP terminal was adopted in the traditional teaching group.After the teaching,the students'teaching satisfaction,theoretical knowledge evaluation and skill operation evaluation were evaluated respectively.Results The theoretical knowledge score of experimental teaching group[(88.87±3.68)points]was higher than that of traditional teaching group[(85.20±4.23)points],and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The skill operation evaluation score of the experimental teaching group[(91.21±7.14)points]was higher than that of the traditional teaching group[(77.34±9.85)points],and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The satisfaction of experimental teaching group was 91.3%,higher than that of traditional teaching group(65.22%),the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion The 3D printed bone model combined with mobile APP terminal teaching mode effectively solves the shortcomings of traditional clinical teaching mode.This teaching mode can effectively help students to understand and master the occurrence and development of orthopedic diseases,morphological characteristics,treatment methods and practical clinical operations.
