Clinical Simulation
Productive Cough, Shortness of Breath, and Fever
About This Course
What you'll experience
This tool for diagnosing a productive cough, shortness of breath, and fever is designed to help learners practice their patient assessment skills. Employing end-to-end AI and technologies like large language model (LLM) and deep learning, these virtual ‘clients’ possess the ability to respond like real humans. Learners can conduct a completely organic conversation with the client, asking them about their symptoms and problems faced. Based on the client’s responses, a line of diagnosis can be established and treatment plan formulated. The MedVR Ed XR Platform provides trainers and instructors the facility to review conversation logs and analyze learner performance based on customized rubrics. Based on the performance review, trainers will be able to provide precise and effective feedback.
Learning Objectives
- Conduct a thorough assessment of respiratory symptoms
- Practice eliciting a detailed patient history
- Interpret clinical findings to formulate a differential diagnosis
- Utilize diagnostic reasoning skills to consider appropriate diagnostic tests

Core Skill
Productive Cough, Shortness of Breath, and Fever
Thomas Brown is visiting his primary care clinician for an evaluation of a productive cough and fever for the past few days with increasing shortness of breath. His symptoms started 5 days ago and have progressively worsened.
Your task, as a healthcare practitioner, is to obtain a health history from Mr. Brown, assess his symptoms, and formulate a diagnostic hypothesis.
Responses to your questions will be the basis on which you develop a list of possible differential diagnoses for the cause of symptoms.
