DESCRIPTION: (Verbatim from the Applicant's Abstract) Despite clear evidence that monitoring neurological function during surgery decreases the incidence of neurological deficits and thus improves outcomes, this type of monitoring is not performed routinely. Monitoring equipment is readily available, but the problem facing most hospitals is the lack of trained personnel to perform the monitoring, and, in many cases, the lack of standard monitoring protocols. Those entering the neuromonitoring field come from a variety of backgrounds and the skills required are multidisciplinary. These are typical problems for a rapidly growing application area that crosses traditional medical care boundaries (surgery, neurology, anesthesia, audiology, etc.). In this project, we plan to investigate technological innovations that will address both educational issues and lack of standards. We plan to use a combination of Internet technology, 3-D computer models and animation, simulations, and a series of recorded case studies to solve these problems. Products to be produced include: a series of interactive, CD-ROM based software; surgical simulators that demonstrate the potential CNS-damaging manipulations; a library of data to illustrate a variety of patient responses; and, a simulator which will play the data into any commercial neuromonitor. We also plan to develop consensus-based guidelines where none exist. If successful, the educational aids developed will improve the quality of neuromonitoring education and accelerate the number of skilled personnel to fill the many job openings in this field and, ultimately, improve neurological outcomes from surgery. Longer term opportunities include the application of the techniques developed to a wider variety of medical education areas. PROPOSED COMMERCIAL APPLICATION: NOT AVAILABLE

描述：(逐字摘自申请人的摘要)尽管有明确的证据 在手术中监测神经功能可降低 神经缺陷，从而改善结果，这种类型的监测是 不是按常规表演的。监控设备是现成的，但 大多数医院面临的问题是缺乏训练有素的人员来执行 监测，在许多情况下，缺乏标准的监测协议。 那些进入神经监测领域的人来自不同的背景和 所需技能是多学科的。这些都是 跨越传统医疗的快速增长的应用领域 边界(外科、神经学、麻醉学、听力学等)。 在这个项目中，我们计划调查技术创新， 解决教育问题和缺乏标准。我们计划使用一个 互联网技术、3-D计算机模型和动画的结合， 模拟，以及一系列有记录的案例研究来解决这些问题。 将生产的产品包括：基于CD-ROM的交互式系列 软件；显示潜在的中枢神经系统损伤的手术模拟器 手法；一个数据库，用来说明各种患者的反应； 还有一个模拟器，可以将数据播放到任何商业神经监测器中。我们 还计划在没有共识的情况下制定基于共识的指导方针。 如果成功，开发的教育辅助工具将提高 神经监测教育，加快技能人才数量， 填补这个领域的许多职位空缺，并最终改善神经学 手术的结果。较长期的机会包括 技术发展到更广泛的医学教育领域。 建议的商业应用：不可用
