New Simulation-Based Education Using a Simulation App in Paramedic Education

Abstract

　A simulated defibrillator using an iPad application was introduced for simulation education of endogenous diseases in paramedic training education. As a result, the reality of the scenario was increased, and a living body could play the role of the injured person, enabling simulation education in a different format than before. The use of a simulated defibrillator in EMT training can be a useful tool to motivate students and improve educational effectiveness.
