Fabrication and validation of a low ‐cost, medium‐fidelity silicone injection molded endoscopic sinus surgery simulation model
ConclusionsSimulation models have proven efficacy in endoscopic skill and procedural training. The group developed a novel low‐cost, medium‐fidelity sinus training model utilizing three‐dimensional modeling and printing. Testing of this model revealed high ratings for both face and construct validity for a range of endoscopic procedures. Strong interest in using this model for resident training was unanimous among all survey participants.
