“…Several recent studies have included medical students to validate clinical skills assessment tools for cricothyrotomy, pediatric airway endoscopy simulation, and epistaxis management . Medical students have also been included in studies validating skills models for endoscopic sinus surgery, temporal bone drilling, myringotomy with tympanostomy tube insertion, otoscopy, epistaxis management, nasolaryngoscopy, transoral robotic surgery, and lymph node palpation …”

“…[4][5][6][7][8] Much has been written about the use and efficacy of simulation in otolaryngology -head and neck surgery. [9][10][11][12][13][14][15] A 'boot camp' is an intense, focused training course that covers multiple procedural skills and clinical scenarios. In 2011, a group from Georgetown University described the first otolaryngology -head and neck surgery boot camp.…”

Background: In otolaryngology, surgical emergencies can occur at any time. An annual surgical training camp (or 'boot camp') offers junior residents from across North America the opportunity to learn and practice these skills in a safe environment. The goals of this study were to describe the set-up and execution of a simulation-based otolaryngology boot camp and to determine participants' confidence in performing routine and emergency oncall procedures in stressful situations before and after the boot camp.Methods: There were three main components of the boot camp: task trainers, simulations and an interactive panel discussion. Surveys were given to participants before and after the boot camp, and their confidence in performing the different tasks was assessed via multiple t-tests.Results: Participants comprised 22 residents from 12 different universities; 10 of these completed both boot camp surveys. Of the nine tasks, the residents reported a significant improvement in confidence levels for six, including surgical airway and orbital haematoma management.Conclusion: An otolaryngology boot camp gives residents the chance to learn and practice emergency skills before encountering the emergencies in everyday practice. Their confidence in multiple skillsets was significantly improved after the boot camp. Given the shift towards competency-based learning in medical training, this study has implications for all surgical and procedural specialties.

“…Simulation has successfully been designed to enhance otolaryngology resident knowledge and demonstrate procedural skills in laryngeal, otologic, rhinologic, and robotic surgical procedures . Educational mannequins, which have previously been used for both pediatric and adult endotracheal intubation, as well as nasopharyngolaryngoscopy, could also be repurposed to create a clinical scenario simulating a patient with acute angioedema and pending airway compromise.…”

This study is the first to offer insight into C1-INH-HAE education and management principles in otolaryngology training programs. Surveyed program directors believe residents need a strong knowledge base in the management of C1-INH-HAE but less than half feel their trainees acquire the necessary exposure to this emergent disease process. Future research efforts in this area should aim to determine optimal educational activities as well as how to best incorporate this into otolaryngology residency curricula.

A randomized controlled trial of nasolaryngoscopy training techniques

Abstract: Simulation-based training using an anatomically correct model of the upper airway together with formalized video-assisted feedback on that training is a simple and effective way to improve endoscopy skills prior to starting flexible nasolaryngoscopy on patients.
