Resumen
CRUZ PEREZ, Betty et al. Anatomical model of the cervical and brachial plexuses by gluing technique and three-dimensional modeling. EDUMECENTRO [online]. 2022, vol.14 Epub 30-Oct-2022. ISSN 2077-2874.
Background:
anatomical preparations of the peripheral nervous system are difficult to obtain due to the lack of appropriate anatomical material and the need to apply conservation techniques that are not always available; which justifies the creation of models with simple techniques that allow the student to show the morphological characteristics with the highest level of accuracy.
Objective:
to describe the process of elaboration of a handcraft anatomical model of the macroscopic anatomy of the cervical and brachial plexuses for the teaching-learning process.
Methods:
a descriptive observational study was carried out at the Villa Clara University of Medical Sciences from January to December 2020, using theoretical methods: analytical-synthetic, induction-deduction and systemic approach; and empirical ones, the review and analysis of scientific literature and participatory observation.
Results:
the information obtained allowed the systematization of the techniques and procedures for the elaboration of a handcraft anatomical model a teaching aid, in which the constitution and topography of the cervical and brachial plexuses, the relationships between them, are represented objectively and in detail with the vagus, accessory, and hypoglossal cranial nerves.
Conclusions:
the creation of handmade anatomical models of specific anatomical formations of the peripheral nervous system for teaching purposes, with easily obtained and low-cost materials, was described. The process of modeling the cervical and brachial plexuses was an exercise for teachers and students that link vocation, science and art, with obvious contributions to the quality of the teaching-learning process.
