Weaning VR nursing scenario by ASFAN

Learning objectives

By the end of this experience the learner can:

  • Apply readiness-to-wean criteria.
  • Perform endotracheal suctioning and oral care safely.
  • Monitor a spontaneous breathing trial and recognise failure criteria.
  • Communicate findings to the medical team.

Project Video

Watch the Weaning experience recorded inside the ASFAN VR nursing simulator.

Procedure steps

  1. Check sedation level, oxygen requirement and haemodynamic stability.
  2. Suction secretions and reassure the patient.
  3. Start the spontaneous breathing trial with pressure support.
  4. Monitor rate, volume, saturation and work of breathing for 30 minutes.
  5. Report the outcome and prepare for extubation or resume support.

Assessment

Suctioning technique, monitoring intervals and the weaning decision are scored.

Equipment and setting

Standalone VR headset with hand controllers, full-scale virtual patient and equipment, instructor screen mirroring, Arabic and English interface, offline operation on the campus network.
