Description
Ramazan Kurul and co-authors test printed fracture models in teaching in a 2025 trial. Wrist fractures are common, yet students struggle to grasp them from flat images. The team printed high detail fracture models from patient scans. Physiotherapy students were split between fracture models and a healthy bone model.
Both groups trained over two structured days with tests before and after. A retention check followed one month later for both groups. Motivation, anxiety, and satisfaction were also surveyed during the course. Results for the printed fracture group began by showing knowledge gains over baseline.
