AAMI Podcast 27: Use of Virtual Reality in HTM Training

Similar to the way pilots are using virtual reality (VR) to simulate piloting an aircraft, healthcare technology management (HTM) professionals can use VR to practice performing medical device maintenance activities, such as troubleshooting a virtual telemetry board, while increasing understanding and knowledge retention in the process. In this episode, Rick Sidlo and Aaron Goryl from GE Healthcare discuss the advantages of using VR to train HTM and other professionals, how the experience compares with a vendor's traditional classroom training, and where VR is headed in terms of its ease of use, access, and affordability. www.aami.org
