Clinical Trials Webinar Benefits

This CE webinar will showcase study results showcasing the comparison between SPs and AI-enhanced virtual patients for undergraduate nursing education.

Abstract:

Join Dr. Nicole Harder, esteemed healthcare simulation scholar from the University of Manitoba, as she unveils findings from a groundbreaking study that pits tradition against innovation: Standardized Patient (SP) simulation versus AI-enhanced Virtual Patients (VPs) in undergraduate nursing education. In this data-rich, insight-packed session, Dr. Harder will break down what each modality brings to the bedside, from the human touch of SPs to the scalable smarts of AI-driven simulations.

Participants will receive a front-row seat to the strengths, limitations, and practice implications of each approach—and discover when to go high-tech, when to stick with the classics, and how a blended approach might just be the prescription for the future. The session will also spotlight the InvolveXR platform, showcasing the latest generation of AI-powered patients and simulated characters—complete with upgrades inspired directly by the study’s findings.

Whether you’re a clinical simulation die-hard, a tech skeptic, or simply curious about what’s next in immersive nursing education, this webinar is your chance to learn, question, and imagine the future of clinical training.

Those ready to meet the future of nursing education—a good mix of human and artificial intelligence.

Learning Objectives:

• Learn where each clinical training modality – SP versus AI-enabled VR – shined through and what were some of the limitations.

• Understand what could be implications between the two types of methodologies for practice in delivering clinical education and training to meet clinical communication performance measures.

• Discover the latest AI capabilities for immersive learning in nursing simulation.
