Abstract
This paper reports on a longitudinal, design-based research (DBR) study to promote clinical decision making using a virtual patient (VP) simulation for emergency renal care. The VP was piloted with pharmacy students, then offered as an interprofessional learning exercise for pharmacy and medical students, before being introduced as part of the curriculum. In this paper, the DBR framework used to design, implement and evaluate the VP is described. The iterative changes made and implications for the integration of virtual patient simulation in the pharmacy curriculum are discussed.
