The Use of a Virtual Simulator for Practicing the Skills of Auscultation of Sounds of the Lungs of Children in the Formation of Clinical Thinking

Auscultation skills are some of the most important basic methods of patient examination. The educational process of teaching auscultation is complex in itself, and in the context of the pandemic of the new coronavirus infection and the widespread epidemiological limitations, the complexity of learning is multiplied, which requires alternative teaching methods. The Virtual Lung Sound Auscultation Simulator creates a learning platform for auscultation by delivering real pre-recorded cardiopulmonary sounds on the virtual chest of a child.
