EMS – Pediatric Seizure
SIMULATION TYPE
Open Scenario
SIMULATION DURATION
10 minutes
PATIENT AGE GROUP
Pediatric
TARGET AUDIENCE
EMT, Paramedic
In this immersive VR simulation, participants will engage in a critical scenario involving a seven-year-old girl, Lily Thompson, who has a documented history of epilepsy.
While at school, Lily experienced a witnessed seizure. Although her teacher administered the prescribed medication, the seizure persisted, prompting the teacher to call for emergency medical services (EMS). It is noted that Lily had a seizure one month prior, but its duration was significantly shorter.
Importantly, Lily has no additional medical conditions or allergies.

Core Skills Training
Managing Pediatric Seizure
As part of this multiplayer open scenario, the learner will provide BVM medication, place the patient on cardiac monitor, and establish an IV. The patient will be administered anti-seizure medication. If the patient's condition does not improve, a second dose of medicine will be administered to stabilize them. 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.
Debriefing
End-of-task debriefing to assess one’s performance, evaluate actions, and get the most out of the training. Examples of topics being touched upon in the debriefing include the following:
- Thorough patient assessment
- Completion of necessary steps
- Correct medication administration to patient
- Sequential completion of task
- Execution of time-sensitive tasks
