Abstract As mass casualty incidents continue to escalate in the United States, we must improve frontline responder performance increase odds of victim survival. In this article, describe First Responder Virtual Reality Simulator, a high‐fidelity, fully immersive, automated, programmable virtual reality (VR) simulation designed train responders treat and triage victims incidents. trainees don wireless VR head‐mounted display linked compatible desktop computer. Trainees see hear autonomous,...

Although traditional virtual patient simulations are designed to teach and assess clinical reasoning skills, few employ conversational dialogue with the patients. The standardized patients (VSPs) described herein represent that students interview using natural language. Students take histories develop differential diagnoses of VSPs as much they would or actual student-VSP interactions recorded, creating a comprehensive record questions order in which were asked, can be analyzed...

Introduction: Practicing a medical history using standardized patients is an essential component of school curricula. Recent advances in technology now allow for newer approaches practicing and assessing communication skills. We describe herein virtual patient (VSP) system that allows students to practice their taking skills receive immediate feedback.Methods: Our VSPs consist artificially intelligent, emotionally responsive 3D characters which communicate with natural language. The...

Introduction Advances in natural language understanding have facilitated the development of Virtual Standardized Patients (VSPs) that may soon rival human patients conversational ability. We describe herein an artificial intelligence (AI) system for VSPs enabling students to practice their history taking skills.Methods Our consists (1) Automated Speech Recognition (ASR), (2) hybrid AI question identification, (3) classifier choose between two systems, and (4) automated speech generation....

Background Medical students in the U.S. must demonstrate urgent and emergent care competence before graduation. Urgent involves recognizing, evaluating initiating management of an unstable patient. High-fidelity (HF) simulation can improve skills, but because it is resource intense, alternative methods are needed.

Prenatal counseling at the limits of newborn viability involves sensitive interactions between neonatal providers and families. Empathetic discussions are currently learned through practice in times high stress. Decision aids may help improve provider communication but have not been universally adopted. Virtual standardized patients increasingly recognized as a modality for education, prenatal simulations described. To be valuable tool, virtual patient would need to accurately portray...

Computer-based tutorials are playing an ever increasing role in education and the field of e-learning. Advantages Web-based learning modules include ability to reach a much wider diverse population, learner control pacing approach, flexibility instructional methodology, assessment. However, effectiveness e-learning hinges on its adherence proper educational theory should be validated with rigorous experimental testing. This paper describes authors' ongoing work development, testing,...
