Efficacy of Pre-Use Check Simulation
Efficacy of Transparent Reality
In this published study, learners who trained with a transparent reality simulation of an anesthesia machine had a significantly enhanced understanding of anesthesia machine function compared to those who trained with a similar but opaque “blackbox” simulation.
