Curriculum design and specific topic selection for on-site practical courses in clinical disciplines with limited teaching time is challenging. An electronic learning supported curriculum based on the flipped classroom principle has a high potential to effectively gain knowledge education along improving experience. Here, we demonstrate introduction of Otorhinolaryngology (ORL) real world practice improve management students' Educational aims our were analysed rearranged into (FC) framework....

ABSTRACT Loss of inner ear hair cells leads to incurable balance and hearing disorders because these sensory do not effectively regenerate in humans. A potential starting point for therapy would be the stimulation quiescent progenitor within damaged ear. Inner progenitor/stem cells, which have been described rodent ears, principal candidates such an approach. Despite identification cell populations human fetal cochlea adult spiral ganglion, no proliferative with capacity generate reported...

Abstract Background The availability and popularity of laptops, tablet PCs smartphones in private work environments offers considerable potential for reasonably integrating blended learning formats into structured medical environments. promising educational principle the flipped classroom (FC) provides opportunity to effectively combine e-learning face-to-face teaching within a single framework. However, similar most formats, FC requires solid groundwork digitized content. As rearranging...

Zusammenfassung Einleitung Seit März 2020 wurden infolge des exponentiellen Anstiegs der Infektionen mit SARS-CoV-2 in Deutschland/Europa die Krankenhäuser durch das Gesundheitsministerium aufgefordert, verstärkt Kapazitäten zur intensivmedizinischen Behandlung zu schaffen. An vielen Kliniken deshalb kurzfristig massive Umstrukturierungen und Ressourcenverschiebungen vorgenommen. Ziel vorliegenden Arbeit war Erfassung Auswirkungen SARS-CoV-2-Pandemie auf universitäre...

From spring 2020, SARS-CoV‑2 began to spread worldwide, with what is now known as the first wave of pandemic, starting in March 2020. This resulted restructuring and shift resources at many hospitals. The aim our work was detect effects pandemic on german Oto-Rhino-Laryngology (ORL) university hospitals terms research, student teaching further specialist training.The chairmen 39 ORL Germany were asked about training (residency) period from April 2020 using a structured online survey.All took...

Significance The cochlear nucleus is the first central relay station for auditory signals from cochlea. Like many other relays sensory systems, features a period in newborn animals during which neuron survival and number of synaptic contacts depends on afferent innervation periphery. This study extends this concept postnatal plasticity toward neurogenesis. We identified neural progenitor cells whose proliferative capacity controlled by interplay several signaling pathways. When cochlea was...

Zusammenfassung Die Entwicklung digitaler Strategien in der Lehre beruht auf den technologischen Fortschritten letzten Jahrzehnte, aber auch Motivation, ein didaktisches Konzept verstärkt Lernenden zu zentrieren. Aus verfügbaren Daten deutschen Hochschulmedizin ergibt sich das Bild, dass Medizin ganz allgemein und speziell HNO-Heilkunde digitale Lehrkonzepte aktuell noch eine untergeordnete Rolle spielen. Durch Erhebung eigener konnten wir zeigen, die Studierenden Mehrheit durch Dozenten...

Transcutaneous active bone conduction hearing aids represent an alternative approach to middle ear surgery and conventional for patients with conductive or mixed loss. The aim of this study was determine quality life, subjective experience patients' satisfaction after implantation a aid.This monocentric retrospective included twelve adult who received aid (Bonebridge, MedEL) consisting extracorporeal audio processor implant (BCI) between 2013 2017. On average 40 months implantation, the were...

Hintergrund: Neben tumorchirurgischen Eingriffen können Fehlbildungen und Traumata zu ausgedehnten Defekten im Gesichtsbereich führen, die vom Patienten aufgrund der exponierten Lage nur schwer verborgen werden können. Solche Zustände stellen für aller Alterstufen eine große psychische Belastung dar erfordern rekonstruktive Maßnahmen. Im Rahmen Rehabilitation bietet epithetische Versorgung funktionelle ästhetische Alternative den plastisch-operativen Verfahren.

Abstract Objective/Hypothesis: Implantable hearing devices such as cochlear implants and auditory brainstem deliver information through electrical stimulation of neurons. The combination microelectronic electrodes with nerve cells may lead to further improvement the quality these devices. Whereas several kinds neurons are known grow on semiconductor substrates, interactions nucleus (CN) materials have yet be described. Materials Methods: To investigate survival growth behavior CN different...
