Abstract：Objective To explore the effect of simulation model and gel model on the training of ultrasound-guided transversus abdominis plane(TAP)block.Methods Anesthesiologists who had not performed regional block under ultrasound guidance were randomly divided into 2 groups:gel group(n=36)and simulation group(n=36).During skill training,the gel group adopted the gel model,and the simulation group adopted the simulation model made of pork for practice.Self-cognition,self-confidence and anxiety were evaluated before and after training.After training,the operation assessment was carried out and the satisfaction survey was conducted.Results There was no statistically significant difference in gender,age,and professional title between the two groups(P>0.05)Through the training,the theoretical knowledge of TAP and technique of in-plane needle insertion were improved,anxiety was decreased and confidence was improved(P<0.05).The simulation model provided a more realistic puncture breakthrough feeling than the gel model(P<0.05).What's more,the examination score 20.5(18.0,22.0)was higher than that of gel group 19.0(16.0,21.0)(P<0.05),and operation time 10.0(8.0,12.0)min was shorter than that of gel group 12.0(12.0,15.0)min(P<0.05).Conclusion The training course of ultrasound-guided TAP block can improve the mastery of TAP nerve block skill,enhance the confidence and reduce the anxiety.The application of the simulation model may further improve the assessment results,and obtain higher satisfaction of the trainees.
