On April 16^th Medical Training Tools was delighted to have our TD Box take center stage at an Endoscopy Center stand at the Erasmus MC’s “Rondje Erasmus” Job Fair in Rotterdam. It was a stimulating event where potential candidate nurses could, among other things, book appointments to experience a typical day at the hospital and have “speed dates” where they could grill medical staff about working at Erasmus. Our thanks to Joan Oudenaarden and Tannè Korteland, Endoscopy nurses at Erasmus, for the invitation!

In addition to drawing attention to the stand, the TD Box and our transparent upper-GI model were used to show stent placement in the esophagus, demonstrating from the outside, as well as the inside. The stomach was used for anatomy discussions.

We’re delighted to have this new application for the TD-Box. Are you planning a jobs fair to attract personnel to your endoscopy department? Let us know and perhaps a TD Box could play a role in your job-fair event!

Recently our colleagues at Stöpler Medical facilitated a veterinary training for gastroenterology organized by Vetami. Training in endoscopy was a key element in the training and Medical Training Tools’ TD-Box and silicone models expedited the hygienic and no-hassle explanation- and practice sessions.

We’re proud of the role our products played in expanding knowledge in this fascinating field. If we can assist in your future training sessions, please get in touch!

Recently Medical Training Tools participated in a hands-on training course of EMR techniques in the Maastricht University Hospital, providing prepared veterinary models within a hygienic environment (TD Boxes) for the procedure sessions.

The training:

• Had experienced instructors managing five stations with ex-vivo models, providing direct transfer of knowledge to enthusiastic participants!
• was attended by 30+ participant gastroenterologists
• was a component of the STAR-LNPCP study, undertaken by T1 CRC, a Dutch multidisciplinary group focused on the research and optimal treatment of T1 colorectal cancer

Medical Training Tools provided ‘all-in’ service for this training, from model preparation to the final cleanup.  Also interested in a ‘no mess, no stress’ gastroenterological training? Let us know, we’re happy to brainstorm with you about the opportunities!

Recently Medical Training Tools took part in an endoscopy masterclass with a focus on bariatric surgery at the Gemelli Hospital, Rome, Italy. It was attended by 50 doctors from Europe, and beyond! Our silicone models proved ideal for demonstrating suturing techniques. Some advantages:

• 2-minute setup/2-minute cleanup
• Train using familiar, in-house endoscopes, other equipment without fear of contamination

Our thanks to Dr. Ivo Boškoski, chairman of the masterclass, for his help with the organization and to the teams from Gemelli Hospital and the Ab congress for their pleasant collaboration.

Together with our partner Micro-Tech Endoscopy (MTE), Medical Training Tools recently participated in a hands-on training with Dr. Rogier de Ridder at Maastricht University Hospital.  It was an exhilarating session, exchanging expertise and optimizing training techniques for performing polyp resection and removal procedures.  The results will be documented by Dr. Lonne Meulen, who participated in the session.

Medical Training Tools own TD-Box was ideal for applying the various techniques.
