The enterprise "Roselectronics" has developed a VR course for doctors

2022: Equipment with VR-complex of the training class

On April 29, 2022, the Roselectronics holding of Rostec State Corporation announced that it had equipped a classroom at the South Ural Medical University with an interactive VR complex. Its software will allow students to learn practical skills in helping, including in abnormal situations on the production or onboard of an aircraft.

The multifunctional interactive complex is based on virtual reality technologies. Its main quality is high realism. Thanks to this, students can deeply immerse themselves in the process, hone practical skills and get acquainted with the peculiarities of the discipline. Training sessions can be held in a regular classroom. This allows you to do without specialized medical equipment and more efficiently use medical consumables.

During class, the student is in a VR helmet and controls the device using joysticks. The complex is also equipped with a heart rate monitor. During class, it tracks a student's heart rate. Through this, the learner can learn to cope with heart palpitations, a common mistake that occurs when there is uncertainty and lack of medical skills. In case of errors, the system sends a notification to the user and adjusts the process. The assessment of the work is carried out by the teacher, who monitors the virtual lesson on the screen in real time.

The course for the medical university includes classes on providing cardiopulmonary resuscitation to the victim. The development of the virtual training system and the equipment of the training class was carried out by the Chelyabinsk Radio Plant "Flight."

The use of VR technologies allows the simulation of various realistic scenarios of medical cases. This helps to diversify the possibilities of practical training and increase the level of training of future doctors. In addition, digital technologies make it possible to organize remote training. We plan to offer the developed course not only to medical universities, but also to everyone who may face the need for primary resuscitation actions at work - primarily to the departments of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, airlines and Russian Railways, - said Alexander Nesterov, General Director of the Polet HRZ.
