3D Printed Enlarged Carpal Models for Anatomy Training

Not Applicable

Recruiting

• Conditions: Anatomical Pathological Condition; Educational Problems

• Registration Number: NCT06639633
• Lead Sponsor: Abant Izzet Baysal University

Brief Summary

3D modeling enables medical professionals or students to better understand complex structures. In many studies, 3D printed models have been used in the training, treatment and surgery of medical disciplines such as neuroscience, cardiovascular surgery and otolaryngology. In addition, 3D modeling allows patients' magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) images to be transferred to 3D printers to print these complex structures.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Quiz Scores	1 hour	In order to measure the anatomical terminology and general knowledge of the students, a general test will be applied before the pre-test and the groups will be distributed according to this test score. Then, a total of 20 theoretical and 20 practical questions of 10 questions each will be prepared to be used in the pre-test and post-test. The questions will be under the headings of bony prominences, neighborhood, important structures, adhesion sites and function.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Model rating with Visual Analogue Scale	1 hour	After the completion of the final exam, a visual analog scale will be used to evaluate the model. Participants will mark the level of detail, appropriateness of weight, ease of learning, ease of grasping and direct manipulation, and ease of distinguishing details/details on a 10 cm long straight line.
Academic Amotivation Scale	1 hour	The Academic motivation Test-Taking Motivation questionnaire scale will be used to assess the motivation of the participants. The scale consists of 22 questions and 7 subscales and assesses amotivation, intrinsic and extrinsic motivation.
Test Anxiety Inventory	1 hour	A short version of the 5-item Test Anxiety Inventory consisting of 5 questions will be used to examine whether there is a change in the amount of anxiety students experience during the exam.
