Title

E-Mat: The Extremities-Multiple Application Trainer For Haptic-Based Medical Training

Keywords

Applications; Haptic I/O; Health

Abstract

Research in medical simulation has existed for many years. However, the incorporation of haptics into such simulations has been increasing in recent years. Similarly, the use of medical simulation has also been increasing. We present an inexpensive, portable system for training hemorrhage control. While our focus has been on combat medics, the system, known as the Extremities-Multiple Application Training (or E-MAT), can apply across all medical fields and support multiple procedures. E-MAT can operate in a standalone mode or integrated with a host PC or PDA application. © 2008 IEEE.
