“…carotid, femoral and brachial pulse), virtual simulators with haptic interfaces for simulation of pulse palpation in a virtual environment [3,4], hybrid simulators with a physical replica of a pulsating arterial vessel and augmented reality functionalities (i.e. to improve the simulation realism by adding a "virtual jet" of blood in case of a possible needle insertion after pulse palpation) [5,6]. Examples of implementing a pulse simulator include: using an hydraulic interface (with an hydraulic pump to inflate a tube) to provide a physical replica of a pulsating vessel [5,6]; using the acoustic Radiation Pressure (ARP) phenomena generated by focusing multiple ultrasonic transducers to create perceivable vibrations trough an haptic interface [7,8]; integrating different tactile devices, based on a piezoelectric pads, a micro speakers, or a pin array, into a commercial force feedback device (Falcon by Novint Technologies, Inc.) [4].…”

Palpation is an essential step of several open surgical procedures for locating arteries by arterial pulse detection. In this context, surgical simulation would ideally provide realistic haptic sensations to the operator. This paper presents a proof of concept implementation of tactile augmented reality for open-surgery training. The system is based on the integration of a wearable tactile device into an augmented physical simulator which allows the real time tracking of artery reproductions and the user finger and provides pulse feedback during palpation. Preliminary qualitative test showed a general consensus among surgeons regarding the realism of the arterial pulse feedback and the usefulness of tactile augmented reality in open-surgery simulators

“…There are also many examples of where VR has been used to train the motor skills required to carry out specific medical and surgical procedures (e.g., [6], [10]), including our own work with our collaborators [23], [43] and [30]. Formal validation studies carried out within these projects demonstrated that there is skill transfer from VR to the real world scenario, and that it is possible to discriminate between users with different levels of skill.…”

Abstract-Navigating a powered wheelchair and avoiding collisions is often a daunting task for new wheelchair users. It takes time and practice to gain the coordination needed to become a competent driver and this can be even more of a challenge for someone with a disability. We present a cost-effective virtual reality (VR) application that takes advantage of consumer level VR hardware. The system can be easily deployed in an assessment centre or for home use, and does not depend on a specialized high-end virtual environment such as a Powerwall or CAVE. This paper reviews previous work that has used virtual environments technology for training tasks, particularly wheelchair simulation. We then describe the implementation of our own system and the first validation study carried out using thirty three able bodied volunteers. The study results indicate that at a significance level of 5% then there is an improvement in driving skills from the use of our VR system. We thus have the potential to develop the competency of a wheelchair user whilst avoiding the risks inherent to training in the real world. However, the occurrence of cybersickness is a particular problem in this application that will need to be addressed.

“…A number of low and high fidelity simulators exist to aid these part-tasks, which can simulate pulsatile arterial blood flow for vascular access training. More sophisticated simulators allow practise of the Seldinger technique for vascular access 19,20 and numerous simulators are available for training on vascular closure devices.…”

Simulator training provides the opportunity to acquire and practise technical skills in a safe, controlled and reproducible environment without the risk of harming patients. Although there is no evidence to prove that patient outcomes are worse if trainees undertake interventional procedures, there is an inevitable concern that procedures may not be as safe or successful if undertaken by doctors in training. 1,2 Experiential training in the workplace exposes patients to the theoretical risks of the learning curve of trainees, especially in the radial era. 3 Further, as catheter laboratory (cath lab) scheduling time is precious, having trainees undertaking procedures that inevitably take longer can be difficult to justify when the focus is on lab efficiency. Simulator training has the potential to offer focussed training opportunities that allow both the time and space to develop interventional skills. 4 These skills can then be analysed and critiqued without any risk of patient harm or impact on the cath lab schedule. Enthusiasm for simulation training has increased dramatically over recent years because advances in technology have allowed the delivery of authentic simulated training opportunities. Despite a broad body of evidence supporting the use of simulation in medicine, there are still some concerns when this evidence is extrapolated to less studied specialties. 5 Simulation training enhances learning, especially when used alongside traditional, apprentice models of training, and it is now increasingly recognised in cardiology and interventional training programs. 6,7 In interventional cardiology the evidence and experience of simulation continues to grow, although presently there are no studies that have documented a positive effect on patient outcomes.
