Clinical Simulation
Endotracheal Intubation
About This Course
What you'll experience
Kevin is a 47-year-old male with a serious case of pneumonia. He has been admitted with breathing difficulty and must be intubated. Intubation is a delicate process that involves passing a tube into a person’s airway. It requires well-trained hands that can perform the process swiftly and safely, especially in emergencies if a patient’s condition is deteriorating rapidly. This multiplayer VR simulation allows learners to practice the procedure and collaborate in a photorealistic virtual environment with a virtual patient, polish their skills and be prepared for real-life emergencies.
Learning Objectives
- Demonstrate prepping patient for endotracheal intubation using standard procedure
- Demonstrate correct use of laryngoscope
- Demonstrate successful insertion of endotracheal tube using standard industry procedure
- Demonstrate steps to verify correct endotracheal tube placement
- Demonstrate applying securement device

Core Skill
Patient Preparation
To ensure a successful and smooth procedure, preparation must be fool-proof. Every step needs to be performed meticulously. It involves steps like setting the posture of the patient, pre-oxygenation and premediating the patient. The learners can discuss the steps, help each other, and collaboratively perform the tasks. This VR simulation, with adequate and appropriate affordances, helps learners perform the task efficiently. Prompt feedback assists in correcting any wrong step. Detailed instructions help understand the process and ensure completion of every step involved in the procedure.
