Abstract:
Quality assessment of virtual patients (VP) is important but still insufficiently standardized. We developed categories and criteria to assess the quality of virtual patients. These categories reflect the life cycle of a VP from the planning to the development, implementation and evaluation. Such elaborated criteria will help authors to create VPs and curriculum planners to assess the quality of implemented VPs and choose high quality VPs from repositories.

Critical Guidelines for Assessing Ventilation:
Ethics and Bioethics
Ethical Issues
Ethical Concerns in Healthcare:

The principles to begin the physical assessment include conducting a comprehensive or problem-related history in a quiet, well-lit room, emphasizing privacy and comfort for the patient.
