SIMULATOR TO TEACH AND TEST CANCER PAIN MANAGEMENT

尽管进行了密集的治疗，但癌症疼痛仍经常得不到治疗 教育方面的努力。究其原因，既有教学上的困难 复杂的疼痛管理技能和与之相关的问题 评估临床能力。我们打算开发一台计算机 用于教授和评估癌症疼痛管理技能的模拟器。这个 模拟器将使用多媒体交互技术来创建高 富达学习环境。在该环境中，用户可以 选择实践案例，评估不同的患者群体，并实践 服用了多种药物。患者评估的复杂过程 并强调对治疗的评估。模拟器将使用 时间加速，使用户能够高效地获得体验。用户 将获得治疗并发症的经验，如镇静，恶心， 呕吐和便秘。模拟器将提供在线上下文 以辅导为基础，并在案例总结时总结危重案例。 建议的商业应用：用于教学和测试的计算机模拟器 癌症疼痛管理技术将会有很大的市场。市场 包括个人、医院、诊所和教学机构。 几个版本的模拟器将以护士为目标， 麻醉师和医学实习生。 已经有成功的公司营销其他类型的医疗产品 模拟器。

Frequent undertreatment of cancer pain persists despite intensive educational efforts. The reasons include the difficulty in teaching complex pain management skills and the problems associated with evaluating clinical competence. We propose to develop a computer simulator to teach and evaluate cancer pain management skills. The simulator will use multimedia interactive technology to create a high fidelity learning environment. Within this environment the user can select practice cases, assess a diverse group of patients, and practice with a variety of medications. The complex process of patient assessment and evaluation of treatment will be emphasized. The simulator will use time acceleration to allow a user to efficiently gain experience. Users will gain experience treating complications such as sedation, nausea, vomiting, and constipation. The simulator will provide on-line contextual based tutoring and a critical case summary at case conclusion. PROPOSED COMMERCIAL APPLICATION: A computer simulator to teach and test cancer pain management skills would enjoy a large market. The market includes individuals, hospitals, clinics, and teaching institutions. Several versions of the simulator would be targeted at nurses, anesthesiologists, and medical trainees. There are already successful companies marketing other types of medical simulators.
