Clinical Simulation
EMS - Pediatric Drowning
About This Course
What you'll experience
Benjamin, 10-years-old, was found in the pool, face down and unconscious. His father jumped in to save him. It is unknown for how long he was in the pool as he was seen in the house 30 minutes prior. When the EMS team arrive, they find the father administering CPR to the unconscious boy, who could be in cardiac arrest. The team must respond immediately to ensure the safety of the patient. This VR simulation presents an open scenario designed to train learners in emergency response and the essential steps required to manage such life-threatening situations.
Learning Objectives
- Recognizing and responding to drowning emergencies
- Establishing and managing critical airway and IV access

Managing Pediatric Drowning
In this multiplayer open scenario, EMS personnel arrive on the scene to find the boy’s father actively performing CPR. To stabilize the patient, paramedics must swiftly initiate BVM ventilation, connect the patient to a cardiac monitor, secure IV access, and administer appropriate medications. Advanced airway management will be required, necessitating intubation to ensure the patient’s airway is effectively maintained.
This scenario is set in a photorealistic environment, and all necessary affordances are made available to assist learners in performing their tasks with efficiency and effectiveness.
