Three-dimensional Upper Gastrointestinal Tract Model

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to develop an upper body manikin with a high-fidelity upper gastrointestinal tract and apply into the nasogastric tube training program for nursing students.

Clinical Trial Description

Background： Nursing trainees often fail to correctly prepare medical supplies and use stethoscopes for position assessment incorrectly when physicians perform nasogastric tube placement techniques. The traditional training model are expensive and difficult to access or maintain. It is easy to cause irreparable damage when repeated tearing and sticking of the elastic adhesive tape on the traditional model. Because of the high-priced the traditional model, it is impossible to use real milk, to simulate the nasogastric tube feeding. Inadequate clinical skills often raises patient safety concerns when assisting in changing nose pads and feeding. To enhance the nasogastric tube training for nursing students, the investigators used 3D-printed education model combined with clinical simulation-based training program. Study Design： This is a randomized controlled trial of medical education study. Methods： The investigators first designed our 3D upper body model using the 3D processing and analysis software. To create the basic outline of the 3D model, the investigators used a white-light handheld 3D scanner to scan a real human. To closely resemble the soft biological tissues of real human organs, an adequate material will be chosen in the study. The pre/post examination, student satisfaction, and direct observation of procedural skills will be used to evaluation the outcome of the study. Effect： The investigators expect the 3D-printed upper body manikin with a high-fidelity upper gastrointestinal tract model has potential in nasogastric tube training, particularly in helping trainees become familiar with the nasogastric tube care.

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
