In line with their continued commitment to innovation across sectors, Proven Solution has signed a MOU with Belarusian State Medical University (BSMU) to fully implement immersive learning technology for medical students, using Virtual Reality (VR).
This educational application, built on VR, is a part of Proven Solution’s healthcare platform, which houses several applications. It has been developed to teach medical students auscultation – the medical method of listening to the internal sounds of the body using a stethoscope. With the help of this technology, students will have the opportunity to experience virtually simulated lab exercises, and real-life patient scenarios, to enhance their learning experience. The technology will also benefit doctors in future by empowering them to examine hearts and lungs in a virtual environment, thereby complementing traditional methods of performing medical tasks.
The Virtual Reality trainings serve to emulate the environment in the doctor’s office and are highly effective in helping students through the examination process. The technology further gives students several advantages over prior traditional approaches to medicine, particularly in times of Covid-19 which has limited interactions with patients significantly.
Virtual Reality has emerged as a powerful tool that can give information a new edge and give medical students the advantage of interacting with and simulating real-life scenarios for practicing procedures and techniques. Proven Solution and BSMU plan to incorporate students’ feedback for new application planning, to augment and expand this partnership further. This will enable future students to conduct full medical checkups for diagnosing.
