Multi-Media plans to develop a Breast Cancer Physical Examination Instructional Simulator to teach physical breast examination techniques and lump detection discrimination to health care professionals and eventually to their patient populations. The system will consist of an interactive digital video program providing instruction on breast examination techniques integrated with an electronic silicone breast simulator for practice of tactile skills. The instructional program will teach a comprehensive examination technique, including systematic search pattern, palpation topography and pressure. The interactive simulator will provide practice and coaching feedback in tactile examination and lump detection skills. It will train and evaluate competence on breast examination technique and lump detection accuracy. In Phase I, Multi-Media will produce instructional content scripts for the program and a working simulator prototype with one interactive segment for review by the Subject Matter Review Board for accuracy. Multi-Media will test the prototype mechanisms for sensing user input and providing feedback. The prototype and instructional segment will be validated by two focus groups, health care professionals and patient populations. Review findings will be incorporated into the final simulator prototype and interactive scripts. Phase II will include production of the interactive instructional program and simulator, informational brochure and formal evaluation. PROPOSED COMMERCIAL APPLICATION: The completed interactive digital video instructional program and simulator will be distributed directly to county health departments, teaching hospitals, community health care centers, and other community groups, cancer centers, and breast cancer support groups. The initial and ongoing demand should be strong because of the need for thorough instruction in physical breast examination techniques and the scarcity of effective methods for teaching these skills at a high level of proficiency.

多媒体计划发展乳癌身体检查 教学模拟器教物理乳房检查技术 和肿块检测歧视的医疗保健专业人员， 最终影响到他们的患者群体。 该系统将包括一个 提供乳房指导的交互式数字视频程序 与电子硅胶乳房集成的检查技术 触觉技能练习模拟器。 该教学计划将 教授全面检查技术，包括系统搜索 模式、触诊地形和压力。 交互式模拟器 将提供触觉检查的实践和指导反馈， 肿块检测技能。 它将训练和评估乳房的能力 检测技术和肿块检测精度。 在第一阶段，多媒体将为 程序和一个工作模拟器原型与一个互动的部分， 由主题审查委员会审查其准确性。 多媒体将 测试用于感知用户输入并提供 反馈 原型和教学部分将通过以下方式进行验证： 两个焦点群体，医疗保健专业人员和患者群体。 审查结果将纳入最终模拟器原型 交互式脚本。 第二阶段将包括生产 交互式教学程序和模拟器，信息手册 正式评估。 建议的商业应用：完成的交互式数字视频 教学程序和模拟器将直接分发给各县 卫生部门、教学医院、社区卫生保健中心， 其他社区团体、癌症中心和乳腺癌支持团体。 最初和持续的需求应该是强劲的，因为需要 全面指导乳房物理检查技术， 缺乏高水平教授这些技能的有效方法， 熟练程度。
