The St. Elisabeth Hospital is breaking new ground in order to further improve the training of younger doctors. The treatment procedures with endoscopes, i.e. with fine instruments, which are guided, for example, via the mouth into the stomach or small intestine, are learned by the employees of the I. Medical Clinic on special models. Only those who have mastered these examination steps perfectly are allowed to examine patients under the guidance of a senior physician or the chief physician. The practical training in gastrointestinal mirroring on Monday in the clinic was very well received by the 16 assistant doctors at the 1st Medical Clinic. Sonja Meister found the exercise on the model "very helpful". She had the handling of the endoscope and the procedure of the examination under the guidance of senior doctor Dr. Gert Müller can train on the model without stressing a patient. Prof. Dr. Norbert Weigert, chief physician of the I. Medical Clinic, organized the in-house simulation training. The aim is to further increase patient safety and the quality of examinations. Assistant doctor Tanja Mayer also praised the practical training: “It was very instructive.” She learned to take samples from the stomach with tiny forceps. You dare to try out more on the model. The learning effect is great.
