Introducing Emergency Simulation Training in Paediatrics

Simulation in Em Training Title: Simulation in Emergency Medicine Training

Simulation provides a range of educational tools which have increasingly been incorporated into emergency medicine (EM) curricula. Standardized patients and some partial task trainers, such as intubation heads, and have been used for decades. More recently, a growing number of computer screen simulations, high-fidelity mannequins, and virtual reality simulators have expanded the number of proce...

Effects of simulation on emergency vehicle drivers' competency in training.

INTRODUCTION The number of accidents involving emergency vehicles is a major concern for emergency service providers. OBJECTIVES This study assessed the effectiveness of adding a driving simulator to a traditional training program. METHODS The sample consisted of students attending the National Emergency Medical Services Academy in Lafayette, Louisiana. Each participant self-scheduled two d...

Surgical Simulation: An Emerging Technology for Training in Emergency Medicine

Knowledge Centred Simulation In Emergency Management Training Systems

This paper describes the research, starting points, problems, and goals, for an on going project in which we are study the design and construction of computer simulation in decision training systems. In particular we are interested in the development of simulation systems for training of staff in emergency decision making and crisis management. The main problem that we are study is how to integ...
