Rectal examination is a fundamental and critical procedure in medical education and clinical skills training. In order to improve the proficiency and accuracy of the physician in this skill, the operating model of rectal examination was developed. The original intention of this model is to provide students with a practice platform that is close to real clinical practice, so whether it can really be close to clinical practice?

The rectal examination operation model simulates the anatomy and feel of the rectum and its surrounding tissues. This high degree of simulation allows students to feel similar to the operating experience of real patients when practicing. Through repeated practice, students can become familiar with and master every step of the rectal examination, including finger insertion, exploration, and the identification of different tissue structures. This simulation exercise undoubtedly provides a valuable practical opportunity for students to be more confident in performing rectal examinations in future clinical practice.

In addition, some common pathological conditions, such as rectal polyps and tumors, can be simulated. This allows participants to be exposed to a more diverse set of cases while practicing, leading to a better understanding of the diversity and complexity of rectal disease. This ability to simulate real pathological conditions not only helps students to improve their skills, but more importantly, it helps students to build a comprehensive understanding of rectal disease and lay a solid foundation for future clinical practice.

To sum up, the rectal examination operating model does have significant advantages in medical education and clinical skills training. It can not only provide students with a practice platform close to real clinical practice, but also help students build a comprehensive understanding of rectal diseases. However, we should also be aware that modeling is only part of the training, and real skill upgrading requires a combination of practical experience and continuous learning.
