The Environment is Virtual, The Experience is Real: Part 3

In part 3 of our 3-part series, we go over the updated use of virtual reality (VR) at Envision's 2018 NYLF Advanced Medicine and Health Care program, held on the Johns Hopkins University campus.

 

The VR technology puts students into a virtual operating room with the sights and sounds of what performing a bone fracture reduction surgery would actually be like.  Paired with a hands-on simulation using a fake arm to actually cut open, fix, and then suture for a bone fracture, the VR experience gives a real view into the OR experience for this type of surgical event.
