Anaphylaxis VR Nursing Simulation

The virtual patient develops anaphylaxis minutes after an intravenous antibiotic: stridor, wheeze, hypotension and a spreading rash. The learner must recognise it, stop the trigger, call for help, administer intramuscular adrenaline in the correct dose and site, position the patient, give oxygen and fluids, and monitor for a biphasic reaction.
