Abstract：Objective To investigate the application value of simulator training combined with porcine heart anatomy in cardiac electrophysiological intervention training for cardiovascular specialists.Methods From March 2018 to September 2024,a total of 56 specialist physicians,who completed the rotation in cardiac catheterization laboratory of the standardized training base for cardiology specialists in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University,were selected as the research subjects.The trainees were randomly divided into the observation group(n=28)and the control group(n=28).The observation group adopted the traditional teaching supplemented by simulator training and pig heart anatomy teaching mode.The control group was taught according to the sequence of theoretical training,watching the operation,participating in the operation as an assistant,and performing the operation on the patient.Theoretical assessment and skill assessment were used to compare the teaching effect of two teaching methods on cardiac electrophysiology intervention training.Results There were no significant differences in baseline indicators such as gender,age,education,working years,and working years in intervention between the two groups(P>0.05).Both the theoretical examination scores and the skill examination scores of the observation group were higher than those of the control group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The complications of operation in the observation group were fewer than those in the control group.Conclusions Simulator training combined with porcine heart anatomy can enhance the effectiveness of cardiac electrophysiological intervention training for cardiovascular specialists.
