NCKU showcases Taiwan's first VR stroke education at 2024 Lantern Festival, aiming to boost early treatment awareness.
NCKU presents Taiwan's first VR stroke education at the 2024 Taiwan Lantern Festival's 'Lighting Sanduan' area. The exhibit runs until February 29 at the South Plaza of the Tainan Exhibition Center. Besides showcasing the development of the VR-NIHSS system, it highlights the innovative use of VR technology in medical education, aiming to enhance early stroke treatment awareness.
The VR-NIHSS program integrates VR technology with the NIH Stroke Scale to offer precise training, immersive clinical experiences, and hardware-software integration. This initiative addresses the lack of interactivity and practical training in traditional stroke education methods. By simulating complex clinical scenarios, learners can practice stroke assessments and treatment decisions, improving their readiness to handle stroke emergencies and grasp the critical treatment window.
Led by Dr. Pi-Shan Sung (scopus) from NCKU Hospital, the project aims to revolutionize stroke education by providing a more realistic training environment. The VR-NIHSS program has already completed its initial clinical validation phase, demonstrating comparable efficacy to traditional methods and greater learner engagement.
Part of NCKU's two-year interdisciplinary sustainability project, the VR-NIHSS team comprises members from the medical, design, and engineering faculties. Their goal is to establish a virtual reality stroke simulation training center, fostering innovation in medical education and digital healthcare. The exhibition also serves as a platform for potential industry collaborations and international certifications, aligning with NCKU's commitment to quality education and healthcare sustainability.
The NCKU Sustainable Interdisciplinary Project Exhibition is located at the "Lighting Sanduan" area of the 2024 Taiwan Lantern Festival. It operates daily from 1:00 PM to 9:00 PM. Upcoming exhibits include projects led by Professor Wu Chih-Da from the Department of Surveying (March 1 to March 5) and Associate Professor Hsu Chih-Chung from the Institute of Data Science and Department of Statistics (March 6 to March 10).
