Embalming and Maintenance of a Pliable Cadaver Over a Two-Year Period for Clinical Procedure Learning.

The modified and simplified SCE method can make a "Thiel cadaver" more efficiently. Using a SCE cadaver, a learner can exercise hand-on skill in a near-real condition without psychological pressure and learning time can be individualized, which greatly increases the beginning learner's confidence to master the procedure before working with patients. One SCE cadaver can be shared in various procedure training. Further, quantitative studies will be designed to optimize procedure learning. Integrating SCE cadavers into current simulation training programs appears both feasible and desirable.
