ENT: Otoscopy simulator for practical training in pathology diagnosis

Simulator for otoscopy training.

The training and simulation system has proven its accuracy in diagnosing ear pathologies and is embraced by instructors in the learning process.

Technical features:

  • Integrated system that interactively improves the accuracy of ear pathology diagnosis through experiential learning using a realistic geometric model.
  • Can be used with the "Pneumatic Otoscopy" training accessory, which includes:

 - pneumatic ear with pressure hose

 - pneumatic otoscopy software

 - sensor-based unit with USB cable

  • It is based on a realistic geometric model of the ear:

Ear shape: realism of touch, shape, composition (various ear canals)

Tympanic membrane: optical mode allows the simulator to project the image of the tympanic membrane (1 cm) - realistic clinical scenario for students, together with the use of an otoscope

  • Contains:

 - a database of over 380 high-resolution images of ear pathology

 - detailed educational descriptions

  • The simulator software solution features an intuitive and easy-to-use interface and includes:

 - software for using the tool

 - function to locate and observe ear features through the otoscope

 - pathology simulation software:

  1. of the external auditory canal: external acute otitis, cerumen, foreign body, etc.
  2. of the middle ear: normal tympanic membrane, temporal bone fractures, acute otitis media, tympanocentesis, myringotomy, etc.

 - pneumatic otoscopy software; includes slides to help develop skills in performing pneumatic otoscopy

 - software for self-examination and anatomical examination

  • Multiplexing function

 - provides the ability to connect 14 units to each other at the same time to deliver the most accurate diagnosis from multiple students and streamline instructor time

  • The system includes:
  1. Simulator
  2. Software
  3. Pneumatic accessory for otoscopy
  4. USB cable
  5. Introductory ear
  6. Adult ear
  7. Pediatric ear
  8. Protective housing
  9. Otoscop
  10. Laptop
