The materials include an introduction on the theories supporting medical training, followed by a part on simulation metodologies. Also, the course analyzes how different technologies can be used for medical training and assessment, and how these technologies are used in different medical specialities. AIMS AND CONTENT LEARNING OUTCOMES This course aims to provide the studento with the following skills: Distinguish between different techniques and technologies used in healthcare simulation Define the criticism of medical simulation and propose solution to enhance medical training and assessment Analyze commercially available simulators, as well as research prototypes to identify advantages and limitations Design and select tools for medical and surgical training Understand how a medical simulation is organized and how it works AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES ability to learn how to learn competence in design and development competence in project managament PREREQUISITES Basic programming and electronics knowledge TEACHING METHODS Lectures, Talks by experts (i.e., clinicians, instructors; engineers working in the healthcare simulation field) Hands-on groups activities SYLLABUS/CONTENT Introduction to Healthcare Simulation Patient Safety History of Simulation Basis of Education and Learning Theories Simulation Methodologies Standard Patients Manikins Computer-based Systems Phases and Types of Simulations Debriefing Crisis Resource Management Technologies for medical training VR/AR 3D Models Aptics simulation Basis of sensors and microcontrollers Skills Evaluation Simulation in different specialities (Surgery, Radiology, Cardiology etc.) RECOMMENDED READING/BIBLIOGRAPHY Levine, A.I., DeMaria Jr, S., Schwartz, A.D. and Sim, A.J. eds., 2013.
