Preliminary Implementation of the Next Generation Cannulation Simulator
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019-11-14)
Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) is a highly complex/critical lifesaving procedure known to support patients with cardiac and respiratory issues. Patients on ECMO are monitored 24/7 by a team of highly trained ...
A Skills Acquisition Study on ECMOjo: A Screen-Based Simulator for Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO)
(2019-07-13)
Background: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) relies heavily on didactic teaching, emphasizing on essential cognitive skills, but overlooking core behavioral skills such as leadership and communication. Therefore, ...
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation simulation-based training: methods, drawbacks and a novel solution
(2018-10-19)
Introduction: Patients under the error-prone and complication-burdened extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) are looked after by a highly trained, multidisciplinary team. Simulation-based training (SBT) affords ECMO ...
Enhancing Clinical Learning Through an Innovative Instructor Application for ECMO Patient Simulators
(2018-10-01)
Background. Simulation-based learning (SBL) employs the synergy between technology and people to immerse learners in highly-realistic situations in order to achieve quality clinical education. Due to the ever-increasing ...
Addressing the challenges of ECMO simulation
(2018-10-01)
Introduction/Aim: The patient’s condition and high-risk nature of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy force clinical services to ensure clinicians are properly trained and always ready to deal effectively ...
Using thermochromism to simulate blood oxygenation in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation
(2018-09-07)
Introduction: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) training programs employ real ECMO components, causing them to be extremely expensive while offering little realism in terms of blood oxygenation and pressure. To ...
Revolutionizing ECMO simulation with affordable yet high-Fidelity technology
(2018-07-01)
Simulation-based training (SBT) is becoming a necessity in educating healthcare professionals who work in high-risk environments, such as the intensive care unit (ICU). This applies to extracorporeal membrane oxygenation ...
Using thermochromic ink for medical simulations
(2017-02-14)
Background: In medical simulation and training, blood is used to exhibit its different behaviors in context. In some cases, blood color differential is an imperative visual effect to ensure high-fidelity training and ...
Design and implementation of a modular ECMO simulator
(2017-02-14)
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a high-complexity life-saving procedure riddled with mechanical complications that can place the patient in a critical state where fast and coordinated actions are required to ...
