Application of the new "D3-teaching" mode in enhancing ophthalmic surgery skills
To explore and evaluate the effectiveness of the new "D
3
-teaching" mode in surgical training for ophthalmology standardized residency training.
Methods
2
A total of 40 residents at the Eye Center of The Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine who participated in the standardized residency training program in Zhejiang Province from September 2020 to June 2024 were selected as the "D
3
-teaching" group. This group received an innovative surgical training mode integrating digital resources
three-dimensional teaching
and dry lab simulation. Moreover
another 42 residents who had completed the standardized training program in the 2018 and 2019 were selected as the traditional teaching group. This group received traditional teaching methods involving theoretical lectures
text- and image-based teaching
and video demonstrations. The effectiveness of both teaching modes was assessed by comparing the pass rates of examinations
ICO-OSCAR skill mastery rates
learning periods
and satisfaction survey.
Results
2
After training
there was no significant difference in the pass rates between the two groups. However
the skill mastery rate in the "D
3
-teaching" group was significantly higher than that of the traditional teaching group (28/40
70.00% vs. 15/42
35.71%

the learning period in the "D
3
-teaching" group was significantly shorter than that of the traditional teaching group [(13.14±5.91) months vs. (21.33±7.73) months
t

. Furthermore
the scores for satisfaction with all teaching parameters in the "D
3
-teaching" group were significantly higher than those in the traditional teaching group.
Conclusions
2
The "D
3
-teaching" mode is an innovative surgical teaching method in ophthalmology standardized residency training that significantly improves trainees' skill acquisition
enhances training outcomes
shortens the learning period
and has received high recognition from trainees. This mode is worthy of wider application and promotion.
