Upper gastrointestinal fluoroscopic simulator for neonates with bilious emesis

Abstract: Prompt diagnosis of malrotation and midgut volvulus in infants with bilious emesis is critical. However because of the limited frequency of pediatric upper gastrointestinal (UGI) fluoroscopic procedures in neonates, many diagnostic radiology residents complete their training never having seen or performed a UGI on a baby for evaluation of malrotation and midgut volvulus. A UGI simulation model for infants with bilious emesis was created to supplement the hands-on fluoroscopic experience of residents in trainin… Show more

“…However, most commonly simulation focuses on clinical scenarios such as contrast reaction management [ 7 ] and training of procedural skills such as those for image-guided procedures [ 8 – 10 ]. In terms of diagnostic imaging, some simulation has focused on improving acquisition in operator-dependent settings such as fluoroscopic upper gastrointestinal exams [ 11 ]. Simulation for education in the interpretive side of radiology is less common but an emerging field.…”

“…Children under the age of 1 year are more likely to first present with malrotation and volvulus. 12 Nehra and Goldstein reviewed a large cohort of patients with malrotation across all ages and demonstrated that among the paediatric patients, 59% were less than one year of age. 13 This was slightly lower than in our study with 65% of patients being less than 1 year of age.…”
