Simulation: Improving communication with patients

Seminars in Perinatology, 2013
Patient-doctor communication has become a topic of increasing importance and attention, with both personal and public health ramifications. Despite this, formal training in communication is rare in later professional life, and the best way of improving these skills is unknown. Recently, attention has turned to simulation as a way to teach communication

Simulation of oculomotility in craniosynostosis patients

Strabismus, 2003
Craniosynostosis syndromes can be associated with missing extraocular muscles, or muscles with abnormal insertions, and so provide useful test cases for assessing our understanding of the mechanics of the extraocular muscles. Patient with craniosynostosis syndromes often show eye movements in which a horizontal movement by one eye is accompanied by ...

Simulation: Improving patient outcomes

Seminars in Perinatology, 2013
Effective training has been shown to improve perinatal care and outcome, decrease litigation claims and reduce midwifery sick leave. To be effective, training should be incentivised, in a realistic context, and delivered to inter-professional teams similar to those delivering actual care.

A New Cardiology Patient Simulator

Cardiology, 2008
We report a new cardiology patient simulator developed through the application of new digital computer technology, capable of playing back selected physical findings (jugular-venous waves, arterial pulses of carotid, brachial, radial and femoral arteries, and cardiac impulses), as well as cardiac sounds, murmurs and respiratory sounds that have been ...

Integration of Standardized Patients into Simulation

Anesthesiology Clinics, 2007
Standardized participants (SPs) can greatly enhance high-fidelity simulation. The educational experience becomes more realistic than by simply using a simulator. There is very limited literature about the use of SPs with high-fidelity simulation. This article provides an overview of SP methodology and offers suggestions for integrating SPs into medical

Applicability of Patient-Specific Simulation

2015
Patient-specific surgical simulation is a new and important trend in surgical simulation that creates new possibilities for increasing patient safety by giving the surgeons an opportunity to practice before real procedures using the patient’s simulated anatomy.
