Construction of Educational Color Layer for Echocardiography Simulator
نویسنده
چکیده
There is the educational color layer for CT2TEE, an online transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) simulator accessible at www.ct2tee.agh.edu.pl in the current paper presented. TEE is nowadays one of the most important diagnostic tools in cardiology. Because of the semi-invasive nature of this examination and complexity of heart structure the training process of learning TEE can be long and difficult, especially in patients with congenital heart disease. Therefore CT2TEE is constructed, the first online TEE simulator, described in detail in the previous publication. This paper contains an overview on echocardiographic simulators and the previously constructed CT2TEE simulator. A detailed description of the construction and operating principles of the Educational Color Layer (ECL), an additional feature of the CT2TEE simulator, is provided. ECL, being a color information storing and indexing platform, enables to mark various 3D heart structures and facilitates the process of learning TEE.

Simulator training enhances resident performance in transesophageal echocardiography.
BACKGROUND Standardized training via simulation as an educational adjunct may lead to a more rapid and complete skill achievement. The authors hypothesized that simulation training will also enhance performance in transesophageal echocardiography image acquisition among anesthesia residents. METHODS A total of 42 clinical anesthesia residents were randomized to one of two groups: a control gr...

Introduction: Current Thermal cycling units fail to simulate the drinking behaviors, and oral balancing temperature. They cannot also simulate other oral conditions such as drink coloring, and chemicals like tea, coffee, carbonated and noncarbonated, citrus juices as well as alcoholic and nonalcoholic drinks and also saliva and milk itself. The main objective of this study is to introduce the d...
