Urgent call made to improve patient safety
Health Leaders
Patient safety has been a pressing issue in healthcare since 1999, with the publication of the landmark report To Err Is Human: Building a Safer Health System. Despite two decades of attention, estimates of annual patient deaths due to medical errors have risen steadily to as many as 440,000 lives, a figure that was reported in the Journal of Patient Safety in 2013.

Emergency drill looks, feels real for AU med students
WRDW-TV
Firehoses full of water, doctors performing CPR and helicopters on standby.
It wasn’t real, but it definitely looked real during a training simulation Wednesday in Augusta.
The goal of the training was to give Augusta first responders and medical students some real-world experience with serious medical situations.
Plus the medical students say it builds camaraderie.

Digital tool gives surgeons a pre-theatre rehearsal
The University of Sydney
Jawbone reconstruction — or orthognathic surgery – is a complicated medical procedure whereby a person's jaw is treated for significant trauma, such as from a car crash or gunshot wound, or diseases like oral cancer. Jaw reconstruction surgery involves replacing damaged or diseased bone tissue with an implant, typically a titanium plate or prosthesis, with patient recovery taking as long as twelve weeks.

Interprofessional education benefits nursing, medical students
Medscape
Creating opportunities for nursing students and medical students to collaborate during their training can be tricky. Still, research suggests doing so can yield massive payoffs for post-graduation practice: facilitating smoother transitions to interdisciplinary care, enhancing teamwork, reducing preventable errors, and improving patient safety.

The future of senior care technology
Health Tech Magazine
Significant demographic shifts headed in opposite directions are placing a major strain on the healthcare industry. First, the population of the United States is getting older. A May 2021 report projects that by 2040, the U.S. will be home to nearly 81 million adults age 65 or older, up from 54 million in 2019. As the nation gets older, its need for healthcare services grows.

Hospital metaverse: Building a children's health center in VR
VR Scout
A trip to the hospital can be an intimidating experience for adult patients in need of care, let alone children. It’s for this exact reason that PixelMax, an immersive communication platform, created a “hospital metaverse” designed to comfort younger patients prior to their visits.

 One of the most important objectives during labor and delivery is recognizing the potential risks to mother and baby. Simulation can help build competency to ensure teams and individuals deliver high-quality care for both patients, effectively manage adverse events, and positively impact patient outcomes, while reducing claims. We have compiled resources to help those in the simulation community address these critical areas including on-demand webinars on obstetric emergencies and OB claims, articles highlighting new guidelines and clinical studies, and more.
