Planning the content of a brief educational course in maxillofacial emergencies for staff in accident and emergency departments: a modified Delphi study

Postoperative ileus: in search of an international consensus on definition, diagnosis, and treatment

“…However, there is great variability among Delphi studies on the rule to determine consensus. Setting a percentage level of agreement between 51 and 80 % before the commencement of the study is an accepted practice [36,37]. Secondly, we invited 35 colorectal surgeons as experts and therefore might have missed view-points of non-colorectal surgeons and/or anesthesiologists who are also involved in the management of PONV and POI.…”

Three-Dimensional Printing Model Enhances Craniofacial Trauma Teaching by Improving Morphologic and Biomechanical Understanding: A Randomized Controlled Study

“…Learning about craniofacial traumas is fundamental to all undergraduate and graduate students given the impact of head and neck injuries encountered by general practitioners every day in emergency practice. 1 Undergraduate students must be knowledgeable about the anatomy of head and neck bones, the spatial organization of theses bones, their anatomical relationship with sensory organs, the main mechanisms and biomechanical concepts, and the clinical aspects of craniofacial fractures. Teaching about craniofacial traumas is, however, challenging given the complexity of the craniofacial anatomy, the necessity for good spatial representation skills, and the implication of some specific biomechanical concepts.…”
