Cardiovascular System Assessment

The Cardiovascular System Assessment Extended Reality (XR) simulation offers an immersive learning experience for healthcare professionals to assess and evaluate cardiovascular health in patients. Through interactive scenarios and realistic simulations, participants learn to conduct comprehensive cardiovascular assessments, including vital signs monitoring, cardiac auscultation, and assessment of peripheral vascular status. This simulation enhances clinical skills, diagnostic accuracy, and interdisciplinary collaboration, ultimately improving the quality of care and patient outcomes in the assessment of cardiovascular disorders.

Learning Objectives

At the end of this simulation, you will be able to:

Participants learn to accurately measure and interpret vital signs such as blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, and temperature. They understand the significance of vital signs in assessing cardiovascular health and detecting abnormalities.
The simulation provides opportunities to practice cardiac auscultation techniques using virtual patients. Participants learn to identify normal and abnormal heart sounds, murmurs, and other cardiac auscultation findings indicative of cardiovascular disorders.
Participants learn to assess peripheral vascular status by examining pulses, skin color, temperature, and capillary refill. They gain skills in detecting signs of peripheral arterial disease, venous insufficiency, and other vascular disorders.
The simulation emphasizes the importance of assessing cardiovascular risk factors such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, obesity, smoking, and family history. Participants learn to identify modifiable risk factors and develop strategies for risk reduction and prevention.
Participants gain insights into interpreting results of diagnostic tests commonly used in cardiovascular assessment, such as electrocardiography (ECG), echocardiography, stress testing, and cardiac biomarkers. They learn to recognize patterns suggestive of various cardiovascular conditions.

Through realistic scenarios, users can explore the intense feelings of fear, worry, and physical symptoms associated with severe anxiety disorders. The simulation aims to increase empathy, understanding, and awareness of the challenges faced by individuals with severe anxiety, and to reduce stigma surrounding mental health.

Urinary Tract Infection with Confusion

The Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) with Confusion Extended Reality (XR) simulation provides healthcare professionals with an immersive learning experience to recognize and manage UTIs presenting with confusion in patients, particularly in older adults. Through interactive scenarios and realistic simulations, participants learn to identify signs and symptoms of UTIs, differentiate UTI-related confusion from other causes, conduct appropriate assessments, and implement timely interventions, including antibiotic therapy and supportive care. This simulation enhances clinical skills, diagnostic acumen, and interdisciplinary collaboration, ultimately improving the quality of care and patient outcomes in the management of UTIs with confusion.

Post-op Hemicolectomy: Pulmonary Embolism

The Post-op Hemicolectomy: Pulmonary Embolism XR simulation provides healthcare professionals with an interactive learning experience on how to recognize and manage pulmonary embolism in a post-operative hemicolectomy patient. Through realistic scenarios, users can practice identifying the signs and symptoms of pulmonary embolism, ordering diagnostic tests, and initiating appropriate treatment, aiming to improve patient outcomes and reduce complications. The simulation focuses on enhancing clinical decision making skills and promoting best practices in managing this specific clinical scenario.

Anaphylaxis

The Anaphylaxis XR simulation provides healthcare professionals with an interactive learning experience on how to manage anaphylaxis, a severe and potentially life-threatening allergic reaction. Through realistic scenarios, users can practice identifying the signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis, such as difficulty breathing, swelling of the throat, and a rapid or weak pulse, and initiating appropriate interventions, such as administering epinephrine and calling for emergency medical assistance. The simulation aims to improve clinical decision-making and patient outcomes in the management of anaphylaxis.
