Integumentary System Assessment

The Integumentary System Assessment Extended Reality (XR) simulation provides a dynamic learning platform for healthcare professionals to assess and evaluate the skin, hair, and nails of patients. Through interactive scenarios and realistic simulations, participants learn to identify common dermatological conditions, perform skin examinations, and recognize abnormalities. This simulation enhances clinical skills, diagnostic accuracy, and interdisciplinary collaboration, ultimately improving the quality of care and patient outcomes in the assessment of integumentary disorders.

Learning Objectives

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

Participants learn various techniques for conducting thorough skin examinations, including visual inspection, palpation, and assessment of skin texture, color, temperature, and turgor. They gain proficiency in identifying normal variations and abnormalities in the skin, hair, and nails.
The simulation presents participants with a range of dermatological conditions commonly encountered in clinical practice, such as eczema, psoriasis, acne, fungal infections, and skin cancer. Participants learn to recognize characteristic signs and symptoms of these conditions and differentiate them from benign variations.
Participants learn to assess skin lesions, including morphology, distribution, and associated symptoms. They gain skills in identifying primary and secondary lesions, such as macules, papules, plaques, vesicles, pustules, and ulcers, and understanding their clinical significance.
The simulation emphasizes the importance of accurate documentation and reporting of integumentary assessment findings. Participants learn to document lesion characteristics, locations, sizes, and changes over time, as well as communicate their observations effectively to other healthcare providers.
Participants learn to educate patients about integumentary health and preventive measures, such as sun protection, proper skincare, and self-examination for early detection of skin cancer. They gain skills in providing tailored advice and recommendations based on patients individual needs and risk factors.

Through realistic scenarios and interactive modules, participants can practice coordinating patient discharge, educating patients and caregivers about pulmonary rehabilitation benefits and expectations, and addressing potential concerns or barriers to participation. This simulation provides a hands-on opportunity to enhance communication skills, patient education techniques, and interdisciplinary collaboration, ultimately improving the continuity of care and patient outcomes in pulmonary rehabilitation settings.

Sickle Cell Anemia with Acute Splenic Sequestration

The Sickle Cell Anemia with Acute Splenic Sequestration XR simulation provides healthcare professionals with an interactive learning experience on how to effectively manage acute splenic sequestration in patients with sickle cell anemia. Through realistic scenarios, users can practice identifying the signs and symptoms of acute splenic sequestration, initiating appropriate interventions (such as blood transfusion), and monitoring the patient for complications. The simulation aims to improve clinical decision-making and patient outcomes in the management of this complication of sickle cell anemia.

Possible Sepsis

The Possible Sepsis XR simulation is a brief and immersive educational tool utilizing Extended Reality to provide healthcare professionals and students with a realistic learning experience in identifying and managing potential sepsis cases. Through lifelike scenarios, interactive assessments, and immediate feedback, users can enhance their skills in recognizing sepsis symptoms, conducting rapid assessments, and initiating timely interventions. The simulation aims to equip users with the knowledge and confidence needed to address sepsis effectively in a controlled and engaging virtual environment.

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.

Generalized Tonic- Clonic Seizures

The Generalized Tonic-Clonic Seizures XR simulation provides healthcare professionals with an interactive learning experience on how to manage generalized tonic-clonic seizures, also known as grand mal seizures. Through realistic scenarios, users can practice identifying the signs and symptoms of these seizures, such as loss of consciousness, stiffening of the body, and rhythmic jerking movements, and initiating appropriate interventions, such as ensuring patient safety, protecting the airway, and providing comfort. The simulation aims to improve clinical decision-making and patient outcomes in the management of generalized tonic-clonic seizures.
