We used a university clinical simulation lab to simulate 25 clinical scenarios in which five pieces of patient information were deliberately varied: respiration rate, heart rate, body temperature, systolic blood pressure and consciousness (see Appendix 1).
We conducted a randomized crossover manikin study to examine intubation with three laryngoscopes under two types of tilt during simulated maternal CPR at our university's simulation centre in March , 2014
Mr Muamba was given a tour of the university's Clinical Simulation Suite where students are trained to deal with cardiac arrest using computerised dummy patients.
If unit costs for travel or accommodation were zero because the measurement site was adjacent to the university as in simulation 4, the costs would be only 61-78% of the current study costs.
For example, a large construction employer is working with an Indian university to establish a simulation package for bricklaying.
Norman Badler, an associate dean at the University of Pennsylvania and director of the university's Center for Human Modeling and Simulation, has been applying Laban's theories to distinguish between a threatening gesture and one of surrender, for example.
Participants discussed IPE experiences at university (lectures, tutorials and simulation labs); IPE on clinical placements; professional silos and wider university environment; and gave recommendations for IPE to improve graduate experiences.
4. IPE opportunities should be structured as part of clinical placement, associated with clear learning objectives. 5. Opportunities should be provided to work together on common clinical scenarios and problem-solving tasks, whether at university in classrooms and simulation labs, during clinical placement, or both.
Here we offer a mini-university experience with business simulation games, peer networking opportunities, motivational speakers and group exercises, all with the aim of creating a shared understanding of what university life is all about.
