Medical Simulator for Practicing Uterine Curettage Procedures Training
Currently, medical students primarily learn the theoretical methods and steps of uterine curettage due to a lack of medical manikin simulation models that allow for real practice. This lack of practical training leads to insufficient hands-on knowledge and experience, potentially increasing risks to patients during actual procedures. Therefore, developing a medical manikin simulator for uterine curettage procedure training will help improve the skills of medical practitioners. This study aims to create a realistic manikin simulator and test it with medical students. The result showed that the uterine wall model made from paraffin received the highest satisfaction score, with an average rating of 3.57 out of 5.00. Further development of the model will be based on the feedback provided.
