Vytvoření funkčního trenažéru pro zavádění elektrody při kochleární implantaci

Abstract

This bachelor thesis focuses on the design, production, and verification of the functionality of a simple simulation model for training the insertion of cochlear implant electrodes. Based on a literature review of existing teaching platforms, requirements were formulated for the development of a new model that would be technically functional, affordable, and suitable for repeated training of basic surgical steps. The practical part deals with the creation of an anatomically accurate 3D model of the head with a replaceable plaster insert containing a hollow cochlea, orientational anatomical structures, and a simulation of the facial nerve. The manufactured model was tested using a standardized procedure that evaluated the accuracy of the approach, the insertion of the imitation electrode, and the realistic feel when working with the materials. The results suggest that even a simple trainer of this type can contribute to the improvement of surgical skills and serve as a useful supplement in professional education.
