Abstract
<sec><title>OBJECTIVE:</title><p> To evaluate the acceptability of an educational project using A porcine model of airway for teaching surgical cricothyroidotomy to medical students and medical residents at a university hospital in southern Brazil.</p></sec><sec><title>METHODS:</title><p> we developed a teaching project using a porcine model for training in surgical cricothyroidotomy. Medical students and residents received lectures about this surgical technique and then held practical training with the model. After the procedure, all participants filled out a form about the importance of training in airway handling and the model used.</p></sec><sec><title>RESULTS:</title><p> There were 63 participants. The overall quality of the porcine model was estimated at 8.8, while the anatomical correlation between the model and the human anatomy received a mean score of 8.5. The model was unanimously approved and considered useful in teaching the procedure.</p></sec><sec><title>CONCLUSION:</title><p> the training of surgical cricothyroidotomy with a porcine model showed good acceptance among medical students and residents of this institution.</p></sec>
