Ítem Acceso Abierto Diseño e impresión de placas didácticas en 3D para la resolución de fracturas en cirugía ortopédica en pequeñas especies.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2023) Alvarez Llivichuzca, Lenin Vicente; Castillo Hidalgo, Edy Paul; 0104589485At present 3D technology has transformed many fields, such as engineering, education, and medicine in general, since it is now possible to improve the patient's health through 3D printing. Technological advances in medicine have made it possible to obtain personalized organs and tissues from a patient's stem cell samples. To design a 3D model, computerized medical studies of the patient are used because they safeguard the anatomy to be copied. This research aims to create and print 3D plates as didactic material for their correct identification and use in the resolution and approach of fractures in 3D bones. The plates were designed to be fixed on 3D-printed bones, which simulated a fracture, to identify the appropriate plate to place. The strength of the plate material was evaluated after performing tension tests with the notch tool that allowed us to exert force on the 3D-printed plate allowing us to visualize that the material used is resistant. To know if the layout of 3D models improved the students' learning, 60 surveys were applied to students from the upper cycles (10th, 8th, and 9th) who take courses in Surgery and Orthopedics. The results indicated that 90% of the students found it easy to identify the type of plate to be used in each fracture after being provided with 3D models and plates for their correction, which allowed them to improve their knowledge and professional practice.
