PFD Week 2016-Punch Ball Advanced Cystoscopy Trainer

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, Matt Ungst and Dan Gruber, fellows at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center Division of Urogynecology, introduce a model they have developed for learning advanced cystoscopic procedures. The model is constructed using readily available equipment, including two balloons and vinyl tubing. It can be set up in a regular cystoscopy suite and helps surgeons improve their coordination with bladder biopsies and double J stent insertion. The model consists of a large punch ball party balloon, vinyl tubing, and a latex balloon, all assembled to simulate the renal collecting system. The video provides step-by-step instructions for constructing and using the model. The purpose of the model is to offer a low-cost alternative to advanced endoscopic trainers.
