System Setup
Opening an Instructor Mode
Scenario
Use Instructor Mode to simulate isolated medical procedures. The
Instructor Mode enables full manual control of all manikin features
and parameters.
When setting up simulations manually using Instructor Mode, the user
is responsible for the clinical accuracy of the simulation.
1 Click <Start> on from the
Windows <Start> menu
to launch the Instructor
Application.
2 Select a manikin from the list to connect to and click <OK>. You
may use the <Virtual manikin> entry if you want to run without
connecting to a real manikin. This will start a manikin emulation
program on your computer.
3 Click Start <Instructor Mode> Scenario. This will open the
Scenario Library.
4 Browse the Scenarios using the library menu on the left. Click the
desired scenario to select it and then press <OK> button. The
chosen scenario will open with the session paused.
5 Start the simulation session when ready by pressing space bar
on your keyboard OR click the <Start Session> button in the
bottom left corner of the screen.
When a simulation is running, the <Start Session> button becomes
the <Pause Session> button. Click this button at any time during a
simulation to pause the session.
RUNNING A SCENARIO IN INSTRUCTOR
MODE
MONITOR AND CONTROL THE SCENARIO
The instructor should monitor and control the patient’s status as
represented by the manikin.
The Simulation control graph shows the patient status in terms of
past, current and predicted trend lines. The timer in the top right
corner shows how long the simulation has been running.
Depending on the scenario, pre-programmed trends become active
and affect the predicted trend lines. The instructor can also add trends
to the scenario, and can decide to freeze or delete active Trends. The
trend lines will be updated accordingly.
ADJUST PATIENT PARAMETERS DURING
SIMULATION
The Instructor’s Patient Monitor shows the patient’s current status. To
manually adjust the patient parameters:
Click the individual graphs or numeric parameters. Pop-up menus
allow the instructor to change the relevant parameters, OR
Hold cursor over a numeric parameter for 1 second. The selected
parameter’s background will go grey and the mouse pointer will
change appearance, to indicate that the scroll wheel can be used to
increase or decrease the value.
MONITORING AND REGISTERING LEARNER
EVENTS
As the learner responds to the patient case, the instructor should
register <Learner Events> as they are performed using the <Common
Learner Events> list and/or the <Learner Events Menu>.
Some events are registered automatically by the SimMan 3G manikin.
These appear with blue text and have a wireless manikin icon next
to them.
INTERACT WITH THE LEARNER
Open the <Voice Conference Application> on the Instructor’s PC.
Use the headset to listen to the learners’ communication and respond
via the microphone.
END SIMULATION SESSION
When the simulation session is complete, click the <End Session>
button in the bottom left of the Instructor screen.
