简要总结
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether using three dimensional (3D)-printed anatomical models improves the informed consent process for participants undergoing orthognathic surgery. The trial also explores how these models affect participants understanding, anxiety, satisfaction, and communication with the surgeon.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Do 3D-printed anatomical models improve participants understanding of their jaw condition and the surgical procedure?
- Do they reduce participants anxiety before surgery?
- Do they enhance overall participants satisfaction and the physician-patient relationship?
Researchers compares participants who received standard two dimensional (2D) imaging and verbal explanations with those who received the same information plus 3D-printed jaw models.
Participants:
- Scheduled for double- or triple-jaw orthognathic surgery
- Randomly assigned to receive either traditional 2D education or the 3D-printed model intervention
- Complete a validated questionnaires assessing understanding, anxiety, satisfaction, and doctor-patient communication

研究组 & 干预措施
2D Surgical Simulation
This group received an orthognathic surgery consultation incorporating two-dimensional images generated from virtual surgical planning. These images illustrated the patient's current skeletal deformity and the anticipated surgical movements, providing a visual aid to enhance understanding and facilitate informed decision-making.
干预措施: 2D Visual Representations of Skeletal Movements in Orthognathic Surgery (Combination Product)
3D Surgical Simulation
This group received an orthognathic surgery consultation using 3D-printed anatomical models. The models, representing skeletal Class II and Class III deformities, were customized and modified to simulate osteotomies. During the consultation, these models are used to demonstrate the planned surgical movements, providing patients with a tangible, visual understanding of their condition and the proposed treatment.
