Abstract
(1) Background: Simulation-based training (SBT) is the practice of using hands-on training to immerse learners in a risk-free and high-fidelity environment. SBT is used in various fields due to its risk-free benefits from a safety and an economic perspective. In addition, SBT provides immersive training unmatched by traditional teaching the interactive visualization needed in particular scenarios. Medical SBT is a prevalent practice as it allows for a platform for learners to learn in a risk-free and cost-effective environment, especially in critical care, as mistakes could easily cause fatalities. An essential category of care is human circulatory system care (HCSC), which includes essential-to-simulate complications such as cardiac arrest. (2) Methods: In this paper, a deeper look onto existing human circulatory system medical SBT is presented to assess and highlight the important features that should be present with a focus on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation cannulation (ECMO) simulators and cardiac catheterization. (3) Results: A list of features is also suggested for an ideal simulator to bridge the gap between medical studies and simulator engineering, followed by a case study of an ECMO SBT system design. (4) Conclusions: a collection and discussion of existing work for HCSC SBT are portrayed as a guide for researchers and practitioners to compare existing SBT and recreating them effectively.
Highlights
Simulation-based training (SBT) is considered a golden standard for education as it helps in immersing the learner in a safe and cost-efficient environment [1,2]
Rotation action performed by DC motors is required to cause linear motion in the required objects. It is evident of the knowledge gap between the advancement in engineering and the application in medical simulation-based training for critical care
The paper has provided an anatomical review of the features of the human circulatory system
Summary
Simulation-based training (SBT) is considered a golden standard for education as it helps in immersing the learner in a safe and cost-efficient environment [1,2]. SBT is considered safe because it provides a training environment that does not risk any human lives or any massive loss of property. SBT in clinical training is growing, especially in critical care, as it helps multi-disciplinary teams improve their coordination and teamwork in the context of operation training [3]. The human circulatory system is a particular case of clinical training in critical care. Complications in the human circulatory such as cardiac arrest will require the medical team to react quickly. Some of the procedures, such as extracorporeal membrane oxygenation cannulation (ECMO), require a team of interdisciplinary members, including perfusionists, nurses, and doctors
