How to Use a Manual Defibrillator - Immersive VR Simulation for CNAs

The Manual Defibrillator Simulator app immerses Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) trainees in a virtual environment where they can practice and master the use of a manual defibrillator during cardiac emergencies. This application guides users through the correct setup, electrode placement, and operation of the defibrillator, including recognizing and responding to various cardiac rhythms.
Learning Objectives:
Remembering the steps and safety protocols for using a manual defibrillator
Understanding the principles behind defibrillation and the significance of different cardiac rhythms
Applying the correct technique for electrode placement and delivering shocks
Analyzing the patient's cardiac rhythm to determine the appropriate response
Evaluating the effectiveness of the defibrillation attempt and making necessary adjustments
Creating a comprehensive response plan for cardiac emergencies
This comprehensive simulation ensures that certified nursing assistants or anyone interested in the healthcare field are prepared to use manual defibrillators confidently and competently in life-threatening situations.
