aRDS: a Respiratory Decision System
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
The purpose of this project is to help teach medical students how to manage a patient on a ventilator. The critical nature of the illnesses
being treated in a Surgical Intensive Care Unit does not allow any leeway for management by experimentation. By gathering data from actual
patients and using that data to drive a model of the human respiratory system, the program will allow medical students to learn how to manage
these critically ill patients. Students can learn and experiment risk-free, since their "patient" is a computer model, yet the learning experience is as realistic as possible because students are using recent data from a real patient who is actually in the same room as the computer.
