A patient simulation system for healthcare training is provided. The system includes one or more interchangeable shells comprising a physical anatomical model of at least a portion of a patient's body, the shell adapted to be illuminated from within the shell to provide one or more dynamic images viewable on the outer surface of the shells; wherein the system comprises one or more imaging devices enclosed within the shell and adapted to render the one or more dynamic images on an inner surface of the shell and viewable on the outer surface of the shells; one or more interface devices located about the patient shells to receive input and provide output; and one or more computing units in communication with the image units and interface devices, the computing units adapted to provide an interactive simulation for healthcare training. In other embodiments, the shell is adapted to be illuminated from outside the shell.

Physical-virtual patient system

A patient simulation system for healthcare training is provided. The system includes one or more interchangeable shells comprising a physical anatomical model of at least a portion of a patient's body, the shell adapted to be illuminated from behind to provide one or more dynamic images viewable on the outer surface of the shells; a support system adapted to receive the shells via a mounting system, wherein the system comprises one or more image units adapted to render the one or more dynamic images viewable on the outer surface of the shells; one or more interface devices located about the patient shells to receive input and provide output; and one or more computing units in communication with the image units and interface devices, the computing units adapted to provide an interactive simulation for healthcare training.

Physical-virtual patient bed system

A system is for monitoring a sterile field associated with a medical procedure. The system may include a sensor being adjacent an area where the medical procedure is to be performed. The sensor is configured to monitor at least the area, a patient for the medical procedure, and a medical technician for the medical procedure. The system may include a processor coupled to the sensor and configured to detect a sterile field event, and an associated location for the sterile field event, and an output device coupled to the processor and configured to generate an alert indicator when the sterile field event is detected, the alert indicator also including the associated location.
