PATRES - A Mobile Patient simulator for Resuscitation Training
نویسندگان
چکیده
Resuscitation training has to be performed under conditions as realistic as possible. This includes both the usual measures in cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and advanced measures, e.g. the use of Automatic External Defibrillators (AED). Currently available ECG and patient simulators either do not meet the requirements of modern training for medical professionals and laymen, or are much too expensive. PATRES is a mobile, PDA-based ECG simulator, which overcomes the restrictions of normal ECG simulators, is significantly cheaper and easier to handle than high-end patient simulators. It opens new opportunities for a new and modern resuscitation training with its wireless transmission of simulation data.

Retention of cardiopulmonary resuscitation skills in medical students utilizing a high-fidelity patient simulator
Introduction: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation has a narrow window of opportunity. It must be started early and followed by defibrillation in a timely manner for maximal benefit. Many studies have demonstrated that health care providers trained in CPR lose their skills quickly. However, little research has been done to evaluate the retention of CPR skills in pre-clinical medical students prior to ...

BACKGROUND Almost half of pediatric third-year residents surveyed in 2000 had never led a resuscitation event. With increasing restrictions on residency work hours and a decline in patient volume in some hospitals, there is potential for fewer opportunities. PURPOSE Our primary purpose was to test the hypothesis that an unannounced mock resuscitation in a high-fidelity in-situ simulation trai...

sophisticated SimMan simulator in a course on the treatment of medical emergencies. We do not agree that PowerPoint lectures are in general 'not entertaining'. However, for teaching of drug effects we did set up the new course concept using a simulator because we wanted to implement interactive training. Morgan showed that students significantly rated simulator training as a 'Valuable Learning ...
