Abstract

clinical simulation manikin teaching resources orientation prebrief presimulation
Background: Orientation to scenario equipment, including manikin function and capability, is a pre-paratory requirement for simulation. Orientating large number of participants can be a significantlytime-consuming process.Methods: Using SimMan software, the authors developed a program that uses SimMan 3GÔsensorycapacity to initiate and facilitate a manikin-led orientation. The program is initiated by touch and usesvoice changer to record dialogue that is uploaded into a scenario designed to explain manikin featuresand engage students in orientation activities.Results: This innovations article provides instructions on how the manikin-led orientation was devel-oped, its use, and the challenges and opportunities for everyday use in simulation preparation.Conclusion: This initiative presents a cost-effective orientation method that is simple to implementand highly effective for preparing students for simulations that involve manikins. The process is simpleto tailor to any induction scenario, and there are opportunities to apply the concept to address otherteaching situations.
