Theory of surgery can be learnt by reading surgical text books. Surgical procedure can be watched on audio visual presentation on U Tube. However surgical skills can be learnt only by hands on training during actual surgery. Surgical skill requires total control over hand muscles guided by neuro signals sent by nervous system. Surgical skills can be enhanced by repetitive hands on practice of surgical procedure. The amount of practice surgeons can get has limitations due to following factors.
- Number of cases which are referred to a surgeon
- Availability of O.T. Hospital bed etc
- Number of procedures which can be performed per day/week/month.
- The amount of time required for consultation and follow up on patients admitted in the hospital
In spite of these limitations if surgeon wants’ to enhance his surgical skills by hands on practice then practicing on harvested animal tissue is the best option. Due to following reasons.
- Animal tissues are anatomically, texture wise and morphologically are very similar to that of human tissues
- Specific tissue for specific procedure can be used entire cadaver is not necessary thus much smaller in size.
- Animal tissue being biodegradable can be disposed off easily after use . it can be buried or disposed as meat trimming.
- Can be stored under refrigeration
- O to +4 Degree ‘C’ (Domestic Refrigerator Temp.) 48 Hours
- Minus 15 Degree ‘C’ (Domestic Fridge Ice Compartment) 1 month
- Do not require Operation Theatre with hand held instruments can be performed anywhere even at home. Spare time can be used
- Cost effective
- No ethical issue involved as tissues are harvested only after animal is slaughtered for the purpose of meat.
- No permission is required from any authority to work on dead animal tissue.
Students pursuing surgical education can use animal tissues for hands on training. Practice of suturing on various tissues will help them to get feel of tissues, finer points like where to take the bite when to use traction, how to avoid tear of tissue etc. This will definitely boost their confidence before they start working on human patients .
