Abstract
Endoscopy simulators are progressively being integrated into training programs since they provide a safe and controlled learning environment for trainees to acquire and refine endoscopic skills necessary for complex interventions.1-3 While several valid endoscopy trainers have been developed, their widespread availability can be limited by local resources.4 Here we provide a step-by-step guide to assemble a simple and inexpensive endoscopy trainer using medical waste and expired clinic materials (Fig. 1). This project was developed within the “Take Instead of Discard” program at University Hospital LMU Munich, a sustainability initiative incentivizing the reuse of medical equipment packaging for various purposes.
