项目摘要

Project Summary/Abstract Clinical training aids such as surgical mannequins and procedural trainers are important tools for teaching proper technique to physicians and first responders. However, the majority of these training tools were developed for adult anatomies. Pediatric patients are often more challenging to treat, but few resources exist for advanced simulation in pediatric critical care education. This is particularly apparent for airway procedures such as intubation, because children's airways are significantly different and more difficult to work with than fully developed adult airways. Due to the difficulty of working with pediatric airways and the relatively low volume of pediatric patients that physicians and emergency personnel see, many EMTs are told not to try intubation as the failure rate is too high. Therefore, an advanced pediatric airway trainer could greatly improve clinical education for pediatric critical care, both for training new physicians and first responders, so that when a critically ill child is presented they are able to successfully perform lifesaving measures including intubation. In this Phase I SBIR project, we will develop an advanced pediatric airway trainer to improve clinical education for pediatric critical care. Most training aids are developed for adult anatomies; there are fewer options for modeling pediatric airways, and those that do exist tend to be much too simple. The primary goal of the project is to design an advanced airway trainer that incorporates features that are not currently on the market, including modular features to vary the anatomy and difficulty, incorporation of sensing to map the trainee's path through the airway, and the ability to incorporate fluids into the airway to simulate the added difficulty when blood or vomit is present. We will build and test a prototype of the key subsystem for this device: a sensing module that can map the path of a laryngoscope through the airway to aid in training proper technique. Together our team will develop an advanced airway trainer that provides direct feedback to the trainee and incorporates modular components for adjustable difficultly, improving education and training for pediatric critical care.

项目摘要/摘要临床培训辅助工具，例如手术模特和程序培训师是重要的工具向医生和急救人员讲授适当的技术。但是，其中大多数为成人解剖学开发了培训工具。小儿患者通常更具挑战性治疗，但是在小儿重症监护教育中进行高级模拟的资源很少。这对于插管等气道程序，尤其明显，因为儿童气道是与完全发达的成人航空公司相比，与众不同，更难使用。由于与儿科气道和相对较低的儿科患者一起工作的困难医师和急诊人员看到，许多EMT被告知不要尝试插管作为故障速率太高。因此，先进的小儿气道培训师可以大大改善临床小儿重症监护教育，包括培训新医生和急救人员的教育，以便当危重儿童出现时，他们能够成功执行救生措施包括插管。在此I阶段I SBIR项目中，我们将开发一个先进的小儿气道培训师来改进小儿重症监护的临床教育。大多数培训辅助工具是针对成人解剖学的；为小儿气道建模的选择较少，而确实存在的气道往往很大太简单了。该项目的主要目标是设计高级气道教练合并当前市场上的功能，包括模块化功能以改变解剖学和难度，结合感应以绘制受训者的路径穿过气道，然后将流体掺入气道中以模拟血液或呕吐时增加难度的能力在场。我们将为此设备构建和测试关键子系统的原型：感应可以通过气道绘制喉镜的路径以帮助训练适当的模块技术。我们的团队将共同开发一个高级气道教练，该教练提供直接对实习生的反馈，并结合了模块化组件，以难以调节，改善小儿重症监护的教育和培训。
