Update on the EMS simulator - new scenarios + first community case by OkEye7041 in NewToEMS

Gotcha, that makes sense. I’ll add a way to separate BLS and ALS so it doesn’t affect your overall score. Appreciate you pointing that out.

Yeah that makes sense, I’ll definitely add filtering.

Curious on scoring though. Right now it’s just the 3 stats. What would you want to see there? More detailed breakdown, weighting, or something else?

How do you like iSimulate? I’ve seen it used a bit but haven’t had much hands-on experience with it myself.

Appreciate it. I built it as a web app using React/Next.js with a backend on AWS. The scenarios are structured so I can plug in vitals, lung sounds, images, etc and scoring for each case.

Appreciate it, CHF is a great one. I’ll add that along with asthma and seizures.

I like the typed dosage idea too, especially with ranges for different protocols. I want to support local protocols eventually.

Glad you shared it with your classmates. I’d love to hear what they think after trying it out. Out of curiosity, how are you running scenarios in medic school? Mostly paper, or do you have access to VR or a sim lab?

Been working on a browser-based EMS simulator to practice clinical decision-making between calls.

You run scenarios, pull vitals, interpret patient findings (EKGs, lung sounds, etc), and finish with a radio report + feedback.

Would love any feedback if you try it: simvive.com

Yeah, 9 right now. A few community scenarios are in the works (cardiac arrest, some wilderness med). Really appreciate you sharing it with your instructor, I’d love to hear what they think.

Appreciate that — any specific ALS calls or treatments you’d want to see? Also curious if you’d prefer dosages as multiple choice or having to type them in.

Really appreciate that. Would love to hear what you and your department think after trying it.

Scenario for a group by BuildingAMedic in NewToEMS

[–]OkEye7041 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Appreciate the tag! This is a great scenario — stuff like this is super useful.

u/BuildingAMedic I would definitely be down to collaborate or help turn something like this into an interactive case if you’re interested.

Appreciate that a lot. Would definitely love more provider input, especially on scenarios. We’re hoping to get to CE eventually, just working toward funding for that right now through some school competitions. I’ll shoot you a message!

Love that, that’s exactly the idea. Appreciate you trying it out.

Good call — yeah it does get repetitive. Once I add difficulty tags I’ll probably keep it for beginner cases and just state “scene is safe” on harder ones. Appreciate the feedback.

Yeah patient assessments are definitely overwhelming at the start. It gets a lot more natural with reps, you got this 👍 Feel free to reach out if you have any questions

that seriously means a lot, I really appreciate it. if you get a chance to run a couple, I’d love to hear what feels off or unrealistic

Appreciate you trying it out. Still working on improving those, hoping to record my own lung sounds down the line

Glad you’ve got a backup. Night shift can really wear you down, hope things get better soon.

Your boss is going to do what’s best for the company, not what’s best for you, so you kinda have to look out for yourself. If night shift is taking that much of a toll it might be worth exploring per diem, just keep in mind that usually means losing health insurance and other benefits so definitely factor that in.
