Background: Nurses must make accurate decisions when caring for patients, even when multitasking. A wrong decision may endanger life. Student nurses are responsible only for single patients during their clinical practice. New graduates have minimal experience with multitasking. We developed a virtual reality (VR) multitasking simulation and evaluated its effectiveness. Methods: Student nurses prioritized tasks when caring for patients. We performed a randomized control trial enrolling senior nursing students who were randomly divided into two groups; thus, an interventional group (13 students) and a control group (performing a paper-based exercise; 14 students). The educational outcomes were measured by asking multiple-choice questions. Subjective confidence was assessed using a Visual Analog Scale. Results and Discussion: The educational outcomes did not differ significantly between the two groups. Subjective confidence was significantly higher in the intervention than in the control group. Conclusion: Although the VR simulation did not improve education, it significantly increased subjective confidence.

BACKGROUND: Subarachnoid hemorrhages may occur spontaneously from a ruptured cerebral aneurysm. The placement of clips around the neck of the aneurysm (clipping) is one of the very common surgical treatments. However, clipping is a challenging surgery for most neurosurgeons. To help support the surgeon’s decision-making process and preoperative surgical planning, we developed a VR clipping simulator (ClipSim).METHODS: High definition 3DCG models such as aneurysms, arteries, and brain were segmented by Amira® software (FEI, Hillsboro, OR) and surgical clips were modeled by Maya® software (Autodesk, San Rafael, CA). These models were integrated and simulated into Unity® (Unity Technologies, San Francisco, CA) software.RESULTS: We successfully developed a real-time, interactive, clipping simulator with an aneurysm deformable model used by PhysX real-time physics engine (Ageia, Santa Clara, CA). In conclusion, the simulator may be useful prior to surgery during the surgeon’s decision making process for selecting the most appropriate clips.
