Student Instructions for i-Human Virtual Simulation
NR341 Max Cook
PURPOSE:
The following information is to be used in guiding your preparation and participation in the virtual simulation
scenario for this course. This document will provide applicable course outcomes in preparation for your
simulation.
SCENARIO OVERVIEW:
Max Cook is a 74-year-old male who presented to the emergency department (ED) 24 hours ago with
complaints of shortness of breath, decreased energy level, and fever. He had not been feeling well for several
days when he went to primary care provider who began treatment for pneumonia. Patient reported that he
did not feel that antibiotic was helping him, so he stopped taking his med 2 days ago. His overall health
declined rapidly over past 48 hours. Mr. Cook’s wife called the ambulance for transport to ED at Chamberlain
Hospital. He was admitted to the Medical Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
LEARNER OBJECTIVES:
1. Utilize clinical reasoning skills to perform a health history and physical assessment on an adult patient.
(CO 1, 3, 4, 6)
2. Construct a plan of care based by prioritizing assessment findings and nursing diagnoses (CO 1, 3, 4, 6, 7)
3. Evaluate patient outcomes to determine the effectiveness of nursing interventions and need for ongoing
care (CO 1, 4, 6)
4. Communicate and collaborate with the patient, family and interdisciplinary healthcare team members
(CO 1, 3, 6, 7)
STUDENT ROLES DURING SIMULATION:
You are the staff nurse at the hospital who will be conducting a comprehensive assessment. After completing
your assessment, you are expected to document your findings as a nurses note in SBAR format.
KEY FEATURES OF i-HUMAN:
• As the nurse, you are expected to complete the case scenario using the following tabs: EHR,
History, Physical, Nursing Notes, Summary
• Gear Heads: These are icons that open required questions and/or additional information
related to the case. The questions, information, and videos must be reviewed prior to
progressing to the next tab.
• Nursing Notes: At the end of the simulation, you will document your assessment findings using ISBAR.

Confidentiality:
To preserve the educational value, integrity and safety of the learning environment, you agree to maintain strict
confidentiality about the proceedings of the simulation session, details of the training scenarios and the
performance of all participants. You acknowledge that this expectation aligns with the guidelines related to the
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) as well as laws governing Protected Health
Information (PHI) in client care environments.
You will not view, discuss, share, record or disclose any confidential information pertaining to the
session. You understand that lapses in confidentiality are considered academic misconduct and could result in
dismissal from the academic program.
Fiction Agreement:
You will suspend judgment of realism for any given simulation in exchange for the promise of learning new
knowledge and skills, treating the simulated patients with the same care due an actual patient, act with a
genuine desire to learn even when it may be difficult to do so.
DUE DATE:
The virtual simulation is assigned to be completed during Week 4 prior to your scheduled debriefing with
faculty/peers.
SIMULATION TIMING:
• Pre-simulation preparation: 30-60 minutes
• Pre-brief: 30 minutes
• Run Time: 2-2.5 hours
• Debriefing: 60 minutes

ASSESSMENT & EVALUATION
Faculty will utilize your participation measurements in the i-Human case, and debriefing discussions to identify
areas of opportunity for enhancement of your clinical growth. Your experiences in i-Human will contribute to
your overall completion of clinical requirements for the course as documented on the Clinical Learning Evaluation
tool.

REVIEW AND COMPLETE PRIOR TO THE START OF THE VIRTUAL SIMULATION:
In order to prepare for the simulation, you are required to complete the pre-simulation questions below and
submit this prework to the faculty via uploading your responses in Canvas prior to the start of the virtual
simulation. If you do not complete the pre-simulation questions and upload them, you will not be able to
access or participate in the simulation.
1. Compare/contrast systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and sepsis.
2. What are key nursing interventions when caring for patient on a ventilator?
3. Describe the purpose for the following types of vascular access devices: central venous catheter &
arterial line.
4. A patient is experiencing worsening hypotension and is prescribed norepinephrine continuous
infusion.
a. Prescription: Start Norepinephrine (levophed) 0.5 mcg/min and titrate to maximum of 12
mcg/min to maintain mean arterial pressure great than 65.
b. Pharmacy has mixed the drip as Norepinephrine 4mg in 250mL of D5W.
c. How many mL/hr should the nurse program the pump to deliver 0.5mcg/min?
**Immediately following the completion of the virtual simulation, you will complete the evaluation of the
simulation using the link provided.
