IDI has developed this training simulation for military personnel who need to have combat life saver skills. In this fast-paced program, five soldiers are injured in an explosion. The user is on the scene and must make triage and medevac decisions for the casualties, whose injuries include a massive head trauma, a "sucking" chest wound, and a traumatic leg amputation. The voice-controlled interactive program allows the user to ask the soldiers direct questions to evaluate their medical condition, and to obtain vital signs and other physical findings through verbal commands for this information. The user can also request instruction and guidance, in the form of a dynamic commentary, from an expert, for any soldier at any time. An abundance of feedback is provided at the conclusion of the session. The user's triage and evacuation decisions for each casualty are compared with those of an expert; the outcome for each casualty is described; and percentage scores, based on the number of correct decisions, are provided. Because the decisions made during the simulation influence each casualty's outcome, users can repeat the simulation again and again. They will learn to make the right decisions and create the optimal results in this chaotic situation. Esteemed faculty of the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences in Bethesda, Maryland, provided the medical and triage information to assure the validity and believability of this challenging and entertaining training simulation.
