Purpose
Videos and images are becoming an educational tool in every domain. The objective was to assess the contribution of short educational endoscopic videos in learning the complex anatomy of the tympanic cavity.
Methods
We conducted a prospective study amongst all the otolaryngology residents in 2021 in the greater Paris area (
n
= 74), from the first year to fifth year. We divided the residents into two groups who had the same 30-min anatomy class based on anatomical drawings. The second group had a 4-min endoscopic educational video at the end, whereas the first group did not. A video test of 10 surgical situations with each time 5 anatomic structures to identify was created. All the residents took the test just after the class, and 1 month later to assess long-term memory. The MERSQI score (design to assess the quality of educational studies) applied to our study was calculated.
Results
The two groups were comparable in terms of training. The “video” group had significantly better results in the first test, mean score 24.40/50 (± 11.7)
versus
16.74/50 (± 11.1) (p = 0.005) and also at 1 month, mean score 23.25/50 (± 12.3)
versus
18.01/50 (± 11.3) (p = 0.035). The score in each group, and the difference between both groups, increased with resident seniority. The MERSQI score of our study was 14.5/18.
Conclusion
This study highlights the educational value of videos to help memorise complex 3D anatomy such as in the tympanic cavity.
