Training activity information

Details

Follow the pathway for complex trauma within your unit for the management of a complex mandibular fracture, including the planning for its reduction and the treatment undertaken.

Type

Observational training activity (OTA)

Evidence requirements

Evidence the observation or experience has been undertaken by the trainee.

Reflections on the observation or experience at two timepoints including contextualisation to the trainees own practice. E.g., for planned observations, a reflection before the observation and after, or for unplanned events a reflection one day after and another reflection a week later.

Considerations

  • Reflect on the journey, considering:
    • Assessment of multimodal imaging and analogue models
    • Laboratory reduction/repositioning of model analogues in planning
    • The range of custom-made devices
    • Manufacture protocols and device risk assessment
    • Adaption of reconstruction plates in complex cases
    • How patient safety, dignity and confidentiality are maintained
    • The application of the principles of patient centered care
    • The accessibility of care
