[Interactive electronic visualization formats in student teaching].

Background: In the context of contact restrictions, conventional teaching is currently in need of optimization and expansion. The range of digital teaching formats in student training is very heterogeneous and their effectiveness uncertain. This study aims to investigate the extent to which an electronic ward round can be used as an alternative to the conventional ENT attendance practical course, and whether the use of electronic teaching formats has an influence on the quality of teaching.

[Multidimensional formats of surgical anatomy in otorhinolaryngology student teaching-a comparison of effectivity].

Background: Technological change in healthcare and the digital transformation of teaching require innovations in student teaching in medicine. New technologies are needed to enable the delivery and use of diverse teaching and learning formats by educational institutions independent of time and place. The aim of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of different multidimensional formats in student teaching in surgical ENT medical anatomy.

[Interactive intraoperative annotation of surgical landmarks in student education to support learning efficiency and motivation].

Background: The development of technological innovations has not only changed social life and the healthcare system, but also affects medical education. The aim of this pilot study was to evaluate whether students, when observing a microsurgical procedure of the temporal bone, gain an additional understanding of the anatomical structures and surgical site when visualization is used that provides identical views for the surgeon and viewer in 3D.

Materials And Methods: During regular attendance tutorials, students were randomly assigned to three different groups: control group, 2D group, or 3D group.

[Eustachian tube dysfunction after cleft palate surgery : Use of the latest diagnostics].

Objective: In patients with cleft palate, a high incidence of chronic obstructive Eustachian tube dysfunction (ETD) is assumed after surgery. Consequently, an increased rate of retracted eardrum or cholesteatoma is expected. Even though no common standard for investigating ETD is available, the development of objective tests has increased during the past 10 years.
