Abstract

A medical training development system for development of medical training scenarios (15) is disclosed. The medical training development system comprises an event modules database (110) with a plurality of pre-programmed event modules (120), a scenario programming system (140) connected to the event modules database (110) for accessing the event modules (120) and for programming the medical training scenarios (15) and a medical training scenario database (10).

Claims

1. A medical training system comprising:

a training device;

a medical simulation management module connected to the training device;

at least one medical training module executable on the training device and comprising at least one scenario for training of students, wherein the at least one medical training module comprises at least one medical training scenario code and at least one assessment/annotation template.

2. The medical training system of claim 1, further comprising a medical scenario development system having:

at least one of a pre-programmed event module or a pre-programmed medical training scenario; and

an associated assessment/annotation template.

3. The medical training system of claim 1, further comprising:

an instructor control device connectable to the medical simulation management module and adapted to use at least one of the assessment/annotation templates for the entry of student data.

4. The medical training system of claim 1, further comprising:

a student records database connectable to the medical simulation management module.

5. A method for the training and assessment of students comprising:

selection of a medical training module;

running the medical training module;

generating performance assessment parameters relating to performance steps of the medical training module;

scoring the performance assessment parameters; and

storing the scored assessment parameters in a storage device.

6. The method of claim 5, wherein the generating of the assessment parameters comprises accessing an assessment/annotation template and generating a scoring module for scoring of a student performance of a medical procedure.

7. The method of claim 5 wherein the storing of the assessment parameters is in at least one of a student record database or an instructor device.

8. The method of claim 5 further comprising debriefing a student.

9. A computer program stored on a non-volatile storage device and comprising:

logic means for the selection of a medical training module;

logic means for running the medical training module;

logic means for generating assessment parameters relating to performance steps of the medical training module; and

logic means for storing the assessment parameters in a storage device.
