  1. Where Virtual Hits Reality Developing Disaster Management Mastery in Virtual Reality Health STAT August 1st, 2013 Victor H. Cid, NLM SIS DIMRC, NIH, HHS

  2. Hospital Incident Management • The Hospital Incident Command System (HICS) • Hierarchical system – not tied to org. hierarchy • Comes to life during an emergency • Specific roles, each with well-defined tasks • Anybody in the organization can play any role

  3. BHEPP • Enhancing disaster resiliency of • Suburban Hospital - John Hopkins Medicine • NIH Clinical Center • Walter Reed National Military Medical Center • NLM enlisted for R&D work • Eleven R&D projects

  4. Traditional HICS Training • Mandatory for Joint Commission accreditation • Methods vary, but include: • Individual study, • classroom sessions, • table-top exercises, • functional exercises, • full-scale exercises (FSEs) • Hospitals identified issues.

  5. Issues Frequently Cited • Cost and complexity of conducting functional and FSEs • Staff engagement issues • Difficulty scheduling exercises due to complex work shifts, staff turnover and staff availability • Difficulty simulating event conditions and information flow realistically during training • Complexity of capturing and analyzing training performance data • Impact of exercises on normal hospital activities

  6. VR Training • Virtual reality simulation of hospital incident command • Testing applicability of this technology on this context • NLM developed VR training environment and web e-learning platform • Contractors helped design instructional aspects and exercises, conduct virtual scenario, analyze results

  7. VR Training

  9. Findings • Planning VR exercises is as costly as planning traditional table-top exercises • Engaging • Realistic simulation of events • Real-time access to real and simulated information tools • 24/7 availability through Internet • Detailed performance data capture • Minimizes impact on hospital operations • Same platform useful for other training

  10. Thank you. Victor Cid, NLM DIMRC vcid@nlm.nih.gov
