Background : In pandemic times where the “lockdown strategy” has been adopted, the use of innovations using technological resources such as the creation of instruments that can replace traditional teaching-learning methods in the training of health professionals is essential. The aim of this study was to develop and evaluate the usability of a realistic interactive simulation computer system using three-dimensional imaging technology and virtual reality with free-access computational tools available on the web. Methods : the development of a prototype (OSCE 3D) was based on the steps used for the construction of simulation software of a "Serious Game". An experimental phase was carried out to assess usability, through a questionnaire based on the System Usability Scale. The study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the institution and all patients signed the Informed Consent Form. Results : a total of 39 undergraduate medical students from the 6th semester of a private university center of northeast do Brazil voluntarily participated in the evaluation of the OSCE 3D. The usability evaluation presented a mean score of 75.4 with a margin of error of 3.2, considered a good usability according to the literature. Conclusions : this work allowed the development of a low-cost prototype, using a three-dimension realistic simulation system for OSCE assessment stations. This product, even in the prototype phase, showed good usability.

“…As a result, many medical databases (DB) have been built since the beginning of the 21st century 4‐6 . To optimize our research quality in our different fields of expertise such as respiratory physiology and the development of clinical decision support systems (CDSS), 7 we implemented in 2015 an automated electronic data gathering process in our paediatric intensive care unit (PICU) 8 . This DB was designed to develop and validate virtual or synthetic patients for cardiorespiratory physiology as well as for CDSS and data‐driven learning systems 8 .…”

Rationale High data quality is essential to ensure the validity of clinical and research inferences based on it. However, these data quality assessments are often missing even though these data are used in daily practice and research. Aims and objectives Our objective was to evaluate the data quality of our high‐resolution electronic database (HRDB) implemented in our paediatric intensive care unit (PICU). Methods We conducted a prospective validation study of a HRDB in a 32‐bed paediatric medical, surgical, and cardiac PICU in a tertiary care freestanding maternal‐child health centre in Canada. All patients admitted to the PICU with at least one vital sign monitored using a cardiorespiratory monitor connected to the central monitoring station. Results Between June 2017 and August 2018, data from 295 patient days were recorded from medical devices and 4645 data points were video recorded and compared to the corresponding data collected in the HRDB. Statistical analysis showed an excellent overall correlation (R2 = 1), accuracy (100%), agreement (bias = 0, limits of agreement = 0), completeness (2% missing data), and reliability (ICC = 1) between recorded and collected data within clinically significant pre‐defined limits of agreement. Divergent points could all be explained. Conclusions This prospective validation of a representative sample showed an excellent overall data quality.

Background: With the continuity of the COVD-19 pandemic and the rapid emergency remote teaching, Assessment was considered problematic. Objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) to assess the core skills required for the family physician is mandatory despite the circumstances. Objectives: This paper is to describe the experience of planning and conducting a virtual OSCE during the COVIDnineteen pandemic. Methods: Students enrolled in the professional family medicine diploma were the participants of the study. A suggested set-up of the virtual OSCE exam using the ZOOM meeting application was approved by the diploma council. Pilot Mock was done after orientation and preparation. Exam was conducted on two parallel sets of stations, each set is composed from 4 stations, facilitated by three coordinators and one assistant host in the ZOOM session. Each session included 10 students, 4 examiners. Coordinators (hosts) assigned assessors and role players in the designated (virtual) breakout rooms with the candidate, instructions displayed all through the station on the white board of this room. Results: Pilot Mock was conducted, and the feedback was improved in the actual exam setting. Nearly eighteen examinee, 8 assessors and 3 moderators and administrate commenced the actual exam. Almost 87.5 % of the assessors were satisfied with the exam. The correlation of the virtual OSCE to written assessment was 0.52 which shows acceptable concurrent validity. Conclusion: Virtual OSCE is still an early version of a method for assessing the clinical skills remotely that needs logistics and further study.
