About this study

Official title: The Application of Three-dimensional Printing in Airway Anatomy and Bronchoscopy Education

The main purpose of this study is to use 3D printing technology to make a human anatomical bronchial tree model, which is applied in medical education for medical students and students of the department of respiratory therapy. Most of the clinical teaching material is expansive and inaccessible. To promote accessibility of anatomy models and student learning effects in our school and hospital, we use the 3D printing technology to print bronchial tree model and apply it to anatomy and bronchoscopy education.

The present study expects some benefits that the use of printed bronchial trees for anatomy and bronchoscopy education. For example, it can reduce the cost of anatomy instruction, let students have their own anatomical model, and make the learning no longer limited to the anatomical classroom.

Read the detailed description

Three-dimensional (3D) printing is a technology used for the rapid production of customized physical objects. Bronchoscopy is a well-established, relatively safe procedure for both diagnostic and therapeutic interventions for a variety of pulmonary diseases. In this study, to enhance the quality of airway anatomy education and bronchoscopy training, we used 3D printing to develop a 3D bronchial tree model as a high-fidelity simulator for bronchoscopy and demonstrated its validity. We designed a 3D bronchial tree model containing 12 detachable parts and 11 adapter rings.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Examination score of pre-intervention

    score of pre-intervention (maximun 100 and minimum 0), higher means a better outcome.

    Measured: pre-intervention

  2. Examination score of post-intervention

    score of post-intervention (maximun 100 and minimum 0), higher means a better outcome.

    Measured: immediately after the intervention

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 3D bronchial tree model in people with Satisfaction, Personal, run by Fu Jen Catholic University at 1 site in Taiwan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Nov 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Taiwan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Examination score of pre-intervention (time frame: pre-intervention). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Nov 2023.
