The Regional Simulation Workshop is a partnership between Association of Standardized Patient Educators (ASPE), Society for Simulation in Healthcare (SSH), and the International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation and Learning (INACSL). The Regional Simulation Workshop is being offered as a preconference for the QSEN ROCKS in Cleveland, Ohio on May 28, 2019. Attendees will have the opportunity to discuss the application of best practices in healthcare simulation. The workshop will cover: the NCSBN Simulation Guidelines for Prelicensure Nursing Programs, the INACSL Standards of Best Practice: Simulation, the ASPE Standards of Best Practices using Standardized Patient Methodology, SSH Accreditation Standards to improve the quality of simulation programs, and the SSH Certification (CHSE, CHSE-A, CHSOS) as developmental pathways for simulationists. Attendees receive 6 CNE credits for participating in this day long workshop.
Be sure to stop by the SSH Booth at the QSEN Conference and see Ashley Grossman, SSH Membership Coordinator, and Kathryn Pullins, SSH Director of Membership. They will have SSH materials, the SSH Dictionary and Sim Health Week buttons!
Have a new term for the Dictionary? A suggestion to improve or edit an existing one? How about an abbreviation we should consider adding (new section for v2.0 of the Dictionary)? Go to www.ssih.org/dictionary and click on the link — we are working on v2.0 now, so want all of your submissions!
Has your organization adopted the Code of Ethics? Would you like your organization to adopt the Code of Ethics? Go to www.ssih.org/Code-of-Ethics to find out details on how to do this and make sure to send us your logo once you have so it can be posted — we would like to recognize that you have done so! And don’t forget to download a printable poster to hang in your simulation center!

B-Line Medical’s partnership with Laerdal further expands the capability of SimCapture’s LMS for healthcare simulation. Seamless product integration allows educators to move from simulation events to debriefing in a single step, and in real-time. All key simulator events are present and synchronized with captured video and the patient monitor. In addition, simulator events are filterable, searchable, and annotated in the SimCapture session for rapid and efficient debriefing. SimCapture’s LMS also offers user management, portfolio creation, scheduling and enrollment, curriculum creation and tracking, and advanced scoring, reporting with grade releasing to learner portals.

In the 1970s, general surgeon Dr. Henry Nelson learned to tie knots and suture incisions on pigs' feet.
While he learned those skills well that way, he's also glad the new surgical residents coming into University of Tennessee Medical Center in the coming weeks have more modern options.
During an upcoming "boot camp," the hospital's Advanced Medical Simulation Center will see first-year residents crowd in for true-to-life training on skills they'll likely use often — and a few they may never put into practice.

Traditional training take significant time and resources. Conference rooms are booked, employees step away from work-related tasks, and a day or more is spent on learning new tools and programs. Yet, after the first hour of completing a traditional training session, typically only 50% of the information is retained. But simulation-based learning is changing the game.

There was a time when the things that made a great doctor were a license to practice, medical expertise, staying current on new procedures and treatments, and a good bedside manner. While those are all still required capabilities, today’s clinician must have a whole new level of expertise that goes far beyond medicine. Clinicians must now be well-versed in technologies, such as artificial intelligence, data analytics, wearables and internet of things, as well as numerous other complex solutions.

San Antonio Express News
A San Antonio-based tech firm is trying to put medical mannequins out of work.
MedCognition is using “augmented reality” software and devices to train emergency medical personnel and first-responders on holographic patients — at less cost than the dummies dominating the medical simulation market. CEO Dr. Kevin King said the company’s software, called PerSim, is a more efficient way for medical workers to learn and can potentially reduce dangerous medical errors.

It seems to happen almost every week: a cop in America is called to respond to some sort of disturbance — a man with a weapon, a woman disrupting the midnight calm at an apartment complex, an escalating domestic dispute.
Law enforcement arrives, confusion ensues, a shot is fires and suddenly the subject is on the ground. Only in the aftermath does it emerge that the cop was not dealing with a violent criminal but someone having a psychiatric emergency: a schizophrenic episode, a problem with their medications, drug-induced psychosis or a person with autism who is lost and cannot find the way to where they were going.

Before starting Level Ex, Sam Glassenberg had made Star Wars games for LucasArts and Hollywood movies, headed up Microsoft's DirectX team, and picked up a technical Emmy. By his own account, however, he was still "sort of the disgrace of the family, because I come from a long line of doctors... and I'm the first one who didn't go to medical school." Level Ex, which makes medical simulation games for iOS and Android, essentially got its start by accident, Glassenberg told ZDNet.

University of Tennessee Medial Center is offering a way for medical students to get real life experience before ever coming into contact with real patients. Medical Simulation allows for students to make mistakes and ask questions. "Its invaluable, it's a unique opportunity that we have here because it's safe. People can make mistakes, they can ask questions and they ca work together to figure out the best way to get whatever they're doing done." said Clinical Educator Beth Talbot.

The Food and Drug Administration has given Royal Philips the okay for its MR-only radiotherapy simulator, MRCAT pelvis (Magnetic Resonance for Calculating Attenuation), in the construction of treatment plans for cancer of the pelvis. Already approved for planning in cases of prostate cancer, the extension of the solution into the pelvic region of the body is expected to provide clinicians with accurate radiotherapy treatment plans for cancers of the bladder, rectum, anus and cervix. It is one of many regions of the body where the Netherlands-based healthcare giant plans to eventually help create guidance for combating malignancies.

Becker's Health IT & CIO Report
A wearable device using artificial intelligence to predict and prevent flare-ups of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease won the $20,000 first prize in the University of California Davis' 19th annual Big Bang! Business Competition.
The device was designed by Dr. Maria Artunduaga, CEO of Berkeley, Caliornia-based startup Respira Labs. It combines AI with acoustic sensors and real-time data to measure "air-trapping," an early marker of a COPD attack.

It’s not every day that you get to leave the classroom to practice gallbladder surgery.
But for 40 students from Orthopaedic Hospital Medical Magnet High School who want to go into the medical field, they’re learning just how challenging their dreams of surgery can be.
“I noticed how quickly my arm started to feel a little sore because I was so outstretched, and it felt kind of different than I thought it would be,” said 11th-grader, Nadia Castillo.

Heart disease is the number one cause of death in the world and the leading cause of death in the U.S., killing over 375,000 Americans a year. Heart disease and stroke combined cost the U.S. nearly $1 billion a day in medical costs and lost productivity. What stuns in the face of such sobering statistics is the fact that heart disease is preventable in many cases. Early detection of warning signs, a commitment to long-lasting lifestyle changes and the right diagnosis and medication can help prevent heart disease from claiming so many lives each year.
