About The Course:

Marcus Walker, 56-year-old-male, is visiting his doctor for a genitourinary assessment. He has been experiencing difficulty with urination and needs to undergo an assessment to determine the cause of discomfort.

This VR simulation for Male Genitourinary Assessment is designed to help practitioners practice the procedure in a virtual environment with a virtual patient. With both training and assessment modes, learners can perform the procedure and assess themselves on their performance.

Learning Objectives:
  • Demonstrating standard technique for assessing the penis and meatus
  • Identifying standard and atypical features of male genitourinary anatomy
  • Demonstrating correct palpation, inspection, and other physical assessment skills
  • Demonstrating standard technique for assessing scrotum and testicles
  • Recognizing signs and symptoms of testicle abnormalities
Reference:
  • American Urological Association. (2023). Clinical guidelines for male genitourinary health.

Core Skills Training

Performing Male Genitourinary Assessment

As a part of this Male Genitourinary Assessment procedure, the learner will begin by confirming the identity of the patient and enquiring about any known allergies, followed by enquiring into the complaints being experienced by the patient. The learner will educate the patient on the procedure, obtain consent and proceed to inspect the patient’s genitourinary, sexual and rectal function. This will be followed by an examination of the scrotum and testicle assessment using clinically approved methodology.
All necessary affordances are provided to complete the procedure with efficiency.

Training

With prompts, guidance and affordances learners are hand-held through the process to practice the procedure in a virtual environment with a virtual patient.  

  • Photorealistic virtual environment  
  • Physics-based interactions  
  • Detailed instructions  
  • Adequate affordances to assist in task completion 

Assessment

Test acquired skills to perform the procedures from start to finish without prompts. An incorrect step will take the learner back to the start to start afresh.  

  • Live scoring  
  • Instant feedback  
  • Adequate affordances for efficient performance  
  • Time tracking to monitor activity completion
