About This Course

What you'll experience

The primary purpose of phlebotomy is to diagnose or monitor treatment of a patient’s disease condition. In this VR training program, learners are provided with equipment like needles, tubes, lancets, blood collection devices, sample labeling material, and gauze to bandage the puncture site to provide a realistic phlebotomy experience.

Learning Objectives

  • Routine venipuncture with a syringe
  • Venipuncture using an Evacuated Tube System (ETS)
  • Venipuncture with a winged infusion set
  • Capillary collection of blood sample

Core Skill

Routine Venipuncture with a Syringe

Venipuncture with a syringe is required for patients with fragile veins as the strong vacuum of the evacuated tube may collapse the vein. This VR training is designed to help learners practice the procedure of drawing blood with the help of a syringe and transfer the blood to an evacuated tube using a needleless blood transfer device. Additional equipment required for the procedure are a tourniquet and bandaging material to be applied at the puncture site. The training has step-by-step affordances so that the learner does not skip any step while practicing the procedure. Simulated physics-based injection mechanisms provide an immersive feel, much like a real-world experience.

How it works

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.

Assessment

Measure progress

Assessment

Test 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.
