High-fidelity, low-cost synthetic training model for fetoscopic spina bifida repair. KU Leuven
BACKGROUND: Fetoscopic spina bifida repair is increasingly being practiced, but limited skill acquisition poses a barrier to widespread adoption. Extensive training in relevant models, including both ex vivo and in vivo models may help. To address this, a synthetic training model that is affordable, realistic, and that allows skill analysis would be useful. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to create a high-fidelity model for training in the essential ...
