1. Let students understand the relationship between the characteristics of the five senses and other disciplines, and establish a correct learning concept.
The "five senses" are located in the head and face, and have special functions such as sight, hearing, smell and position perception, which are closely related to other organs of the body. The normal function of the five senses is of great significance to maintain the normal function of various organs of the human body. For example, for digestive system diseases, there is an epigram that "the disease enters from the mouth", and tasteless food often leads to indigestion; The nose and throat are the portals of the respiratory system, and inflammation of the lungs is often related to upper respiratory tract infection.
The eyes are the windows of the soul and disease. For example, when they are unhappy, they can show indifference. Diseases such as diabetes, hypertension and pregnancy-induced hypertension can cause damage to the fundus or inner ear. Diseases of the five senses (tonsillitis) can cause diseases of the heart, kidneys and joints, and become the focus of systemic diseases. For another example, the symptoms of glaucoma are sometimes similar to those of gastrointestinal diseases and increased intracranial pressure in internal medicine, and sometimes clinicians are prone to misdiagnosis and delay treatment, bringing irreparable losses to patients.
Therefore, otolaryngology is closely related to clinical departments. Many systemic diseases have symptoms of otorhinolaryngology, while some facial diseases are manifestations of some systemic diseases. When studying Otolaryngology, medical students should understand its particularity and its relationship with other disciplines, establish a correct learning concept, and lay a good foundation for future work in primary medical units.
2. In view of the difficulties in otolaryngology learning, let students feel all kinds of stimuli in teaching and cultivate their associative ability.
The difficulty in the study of the five senses is the tissue anatomy of the five senses. Because of the fine anatomy and complex structure of the five senses, many structures are deep, which is difficult for the naked eye to observe directly, and it is difficult for students to understand only through theoretical teaching. In the teaching process, in order to let students digest and absorb, we should give them various stimuli and cultivate their associative ability.
