Abstract :
The use of medical training simulator is essential during the medical doctor studies. Currently, simulation provides software and hardware solutions to provide near realistic training scenarios to treat patients in controlled environments. At the hardware level there are manikin simulators with numerous vital signs, symptoms and simulated cases, the most advanced ones are even low fidelity when compared to a real person. Associated with characteristics most manikins requires a high investment to purchase, use and maintain in tailored practice laboratories. Similarly to real patients, a simulation manikin can only be treated by a small number of students from 20 people groups, this poses and access challenge as students need to make a line to get the opportunity to practice. This work presents the development a virtual manikin focused on the face that allows complimentary practice when assessing, treating and saving with game elements a convulsive patient. The main reason for this development is to ease the learning process by getting familiar with the procedure on a mobile device offering more realistic models within a serious game environment to engage users in practice and skill.
