(TC81) Implementation of a Wireless Video Transmission System for Enhanced Supervision in Endodontic Training

Thursday, April 3, 2025
1:00 PM – 4:00 PM EST
This table clinic describes the implementation of a wireless video transmission system for microscopes used by endodontic residents, aimed at enhancing real-time supervision and clinical training efficiency. Endodontic microscopes are typically equipped with a built-in video camera system that enables real-time viewing and documentation of endodontic procedures through a High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) port. In this innovative setup, the video output of each microscope is connected to a wireless HDMI transmitter, which broadcasts video signals to corresponding receivers in a dedicated faculty supervisor room.

A multiviewer device aggregates all transmitted signals, enabling simultaneous live observation of endodontic procedures performed by multiple residents on a single television screen. This allows supervising faculty to monitor the treatments of all residents concurrently from a single location, quickly identify procedural errors, and offer prompt and constructive feedback without the need to be physically present at each operative station.

The system improves efficiency in faculty oversight, enhances real-time procedural feedback for residents, and optimizes the use of teaching resources. The centralized supervision setup also eliminates the need for faculty to move between operatories, allowing for better time management. Additionally, consistent feedback is enabled by observing each resident's technique, which supports improved learning outcomes.
