Immersive virtual reality healthcare simulation training modules are helping to drive the future of surgical simulation education. This is because numerous studies have found that traditional methods of surgical training among residents and fellows have not properly equipped these professionals with the knowledge and experience necessary to operate unsupervised. In particular, the JAMA Network Open [...]
Across the field of health care simulation, COVID-19 has forced simulation centers and healthcare simulation educators to reassess how simulated training scenarios are delivered to learners. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, many of these institutions have made the switch to remote simulation. However, this transition requires access to a comprehensive virtual simulation solution. To rapidly [...]
HealthySimulation.com’s new Webinar subscription platform has already recorded over 45 presentations from some of the world’s leading healthcare simulation experts on a plethora of topics helpful to building, sustaining, and expanding a clinical simulation program. Of course, the COVID-19 pandemic has brought about its own set of unique challenges, and so many of the recent [...]
SimX, which recently won the 2020 EMS World Innovation Award, announced yesterday an expanded partnership with the U.S. Air Force (USAF) to develop operational medical training systems through their virtual reality (VR) medical simulation platform. In this article, we take a closer look at the partnership’s initial efforts which will focus on expanding existing clinical [...]
