Integrated Healthcare System

Integrated Healthcare System

An integrated healthcare system (IHS) is a set of organizations that provides for or arranges to provide coordinated and continuous service to a defined population. The IHS takes responsibility for that particular population's health status and outcome, both clinically and fiscally. An integrated healthcare system is a well-organized, well-coordinated, and collaborative network. The integrated delivery system is a network that connects different healthcare providers to deliver organized,...

Area of Science:

Medical Simulation
Healthcare Education Technology
Open-Source Development

Background:

Healthcare education emphasizes holistic patient management, integrating technical skills, decision-making, and teamwork.
Decreased opportunities for hands-on patient training and an increased number of required interventions necessitate advanced simulation tools.
Existing training simulators have not kept pace with evolving requirements, creating a gap in healthcare simulation technology.

Purpose of the Study:

To introduce the Advanced Modular Manikin (AMM) platform, developed to address the limitations of current healthcare simulation training devices.
To detail the collaborative process and technical specifications involved in creating a novel simulation platform.
To establish a foundation for future development and implementation of advanced simulation modules.

Main Methods:

An interdisciplinary team collaborated to define requirements and develop a system architecture for healthcare simulation.
A demonstration modular manikin was created, incorporating physical and digital components to instantiate the architecture.
A reference manikin was built to specifications and utilized in a usability study.

Main Results:

The system architecture and data models are complete and publicly available as open-source.
A developer's toolkit, including instructional materials and necessary software/hardware, has been created for module development.
A usability study, conducted by the American College of Surgeons, validated the reference manikin's functionality.

Conclusions:

A functional, modular, interoperable, and open-source healthcare simulation platform has been formally released.
Future efforts will focus on maintaining open standards and verifying AMM-compatible module development.
Widespread adoption and module development for the AMM platform could revolutionize simulation-based training in healthcare.
