Description

ABSTRACT The human patient simulator (HPS) has recently been introduced as an adjunct technology in nursing education, An international survey of nursing schools and simulation centers that collaborate with nursing schools and have purchased a Medical Education Technologies, Inc. (METI) HPS[TM] was undertaken in 2002, Thirty-four schools of nursing (18 based in universities and 16 based in community colleges) and six simulation centers participated in the survey. Information gathered from the survey and reported on in this article includes curricular use, faculty time and use, student opinions, evaluation, and other uses of the HPS, specifically in research and continuing education. The results provide a foundation for early use of the HPS in nursing education at all levels. HUMAN PATIENT SIMULATORS (HPSs). FULLY COMPUTERIZED MANNEQUINS THAT CAN BE PROGRAMMED TO TEACH PATHO-PHYSIOLOGY, PHARMACOLOGY, AND COMPREHENSIVE SCENARIO TESTING OF ONE OR MORE CRITICAL HEALTH INCIDENTS, HAVE BEEN WIDELY USED IN MEDICAL SCHOOLS SINCE THE 1980S. They have been used in nursing schools for fewer than 10 years. The literature on the use of the HPS in the nursing curriculum is sparse since many nursing programs have just begun to use this technology, and some have not yet explored the myriad of ways in which the HPS can be used in instruction. At this time, the full scope of HPS use remains unknown. The purpose of this international survey was to examine such use, specifically addressing courses and percentage of use, training of faculty and staff, how the HPS is used for evaluating specific competencies, other uses for this technology, and student opinions.
