“…This level of understanding is particularly important for individuals predisposed to cardiac issues (Laramee et al, 2007; Morrow et al, 2006; Veldtman et al, 2000). The haptic nature of the program may have aided students in a more holistic understanding of cardiac function (LeClair & Wolfer, 2015). Further research is needed to understand to what extent haptic simulation of heartbeat influences cardiac knowledge and systems thinking related to the heart.…”

Background: Knowledge of the structure and function of the human heart is fundamental to accurately understanding human physiology. As a complex biological system, naïve conceptions abound regarding cardiac anatomy and physiology for K-12 learners and medical students alike.Objective: Textbooks and lectures, as well models and simulations, have had limited success in aiding learners in constructing accurate and cohesive knowledge of the human heart. Three dimensional (3D) modelling, haptic-enabled (HE) feedback, and interactive virtual reality (VR) experiences aid tertiary learners, yet it is unknown if secondary learners benefit from learning with these technologies.Methods: An exploratory study examined secondary student knowledge of cardiac anatomy and physiology after participation in an interactive lesson on cardiac structure and function using a 3D, HE, VR technology system. Students from sixth grade (11-12 years old; n = 75) and ninth grade (14-15 years old; n = 76) completed a pre-and post-assessment on cardiac knowledge, anatomy, and physiology punctuated by technology-delivered instruction on the human heart.Results and Conclusions: Significant gains were found in knowledge from both groups in cardiac anatomy and blood circulation within the chambers of the heart; however, only ninth grade students demonstrated significant knowledge gains in pulmonary circulation.Takeaways: Results suggest that 3D HE VR technologies provide learners robust representations of and student-driven interactions with complex biological systems that are innovative instructionally for strong conceptual and systematic learning. This study offers insight on technology-assisted science visualizations for the promotion of knowledge acquisition and systems thinking of the human heart among secondary science students.

“…Coles et al [5] simulated square and triangular waveforms of the femoral pulse in a virtual environment of interventional radiology using the haptic palpation simulation. LeClair et al [6] also presented rectangle, triangular, and physiologically-based waveforms of cardiovascular disease using haptic interface. All of above researches proposed the virtual reality simulations in different pulse generating and used the different haptic devices (such as Phantom Omni [3][4] and Novint Falcon [5][6]) for response force feedback.…”

Pulse signals can be used to observe the early sign of patients' health problems. From medical researches, monitoring the characteristic of arterial pulse waveform shows some risk indicator of specific diseases, e.g., hypertension, cardiovascular and heart failure diseases. A simple way to get arterial pulse wave is by using fingers to touch the radial artery position on the wrist. In the traditional Chinese medicine, a physician can use the information of arterial pulse wave-form to identify diseases based on the physician’s ability and experience. The improvement of the skill in pulse measurement can be improved by training using various kinds of pulses that represent each disease. This paper proposes a development of the virtual pulse simulation using Augmented Reality (AR) and haptic device for pulse diagnosis studies under various situations. The pulse simulation generates arterial pulse waveforms based on Sine and Gaussian functions. In this study, the mathematical model can generate the pulse wave like human pulse by setting up specific parameters. We can generate pulse waveform which representing different kinds and states of diseases by varying the mathematical model and parameters such as pulse rate or pulse pressure. The features of this work include how to generate force feedback from the mathematical models using the haptic device and how the virtual 3D can display visual feedback. The pulse simulation is useful for the health sciences students, especially the nursing students in training to identify some diseases. The evaluation of the system was carried out by first-year nursing students regarding usability, satisfaction, and performance.
