The Learning Bridge
The Challenge
Traditional medical training methods face significant challenges:
- Limited Realism: Mannequin-based simulations fall short in replicating the urgency and complexity of real-life emergencies.
- Irregular Practice Opportunities: The rarity of medical crises makes it difficult for healthcare professionals to regularly practice emergency procedures.
- High Cost and Complexity: Organizing live training events requires significant logistical and financial investment, limiting their frequency.
The Solution
By providing immersive environments where healthcare professionals can repeatedly practice critical interventions, the consortium ensures that trainees are better prepared for real-world medical emergencies.
Key Features:
Immersive Simulations: Trainees are transported into realistic clinical environments where they must recognize and respond to evolving medical crises.
Decision-Making Under Pressure: The VR scenarios require fast and informed decision-making, simulating the real-time pressures faced during emergencies.
Data-Driven Insights: Trainees receive detailed feedback on their performance, allowing them to refine their skills and improve their response strategies.
Cost-Effective and Scalable: These VR modules reduce the logistical and financial burdens of traditional training methods, making frequent, high-quality training sessions more feasible.
Impact
Increased Preparedness and Retention
By providing repeated, hands-on training in a controlled environment, OneBonsai’s VR scenarios improve skill retention and readiness for medical emergencies.
Real-Time Feedback and Assessment
The integrated performance tracking system allows trainers to assess participants in real time, providing actionable insights for improving individual and team performance.
Accessibility and Scalability
The VR training modules can be deployed across multiple institutions and regions, making quality medical training accessible to a wider audience. This scalability, combined with lower costs, makes it an efficient alternative to traditional methods.
The Outcome
Led by Cal·lÃpolis and powered by the expertise of OneBonsai and the other consortium members, this EU Erasmus Project is reshaping healthcare training by providing immersive, cost-effective VR scenarios. These modules ensure that healthcare professionals are better equipped to manage critical medical emergencies like stroke, hyperventilation, and heart attack, ultimately leading to improved patient outcomes and more confident, prepared medical students.
