Virtual Cardiac Patient
Virtual Cardiac Patient is much more than a course about heart sounds. It's an dynamic, interactive learning tool.
Students are presented with 28 heart sound lessons. For each lesson the student can:
- Listen
- Observe the phonocardiogram
- Enable or disable an EKG
- Enable or disable a pressure tracing
- Use Cardiac Help to read descriptions of the sound and abnormality
- Observe a cardiac animation depicting the underlying physiology
- Freeze the dynamic waveforms for study of sound details
- Use the Interval Control to add/remove heart sound components
- Validate comprehension using the integrated Quiz
