Figure 2. Scenes captured from a virtual reality simulation program showing how to manage a patient in desaturation. (a) The participant encounters an urgent situation where a monitor alarm sounds during a patient transfer; (b) after confirming that no numbers are displayed on the monitor, the participant places the saturation probe back on securely; (c) if oxygen saturation does not increase, the participant securely attaches the disconnected oxygen line; (d) the participant maximizes the oxygen flow rate; (e) the participant checks the patient’s level of consciousness and pulse rate; and (f) the participant chooses a plan depending on whether the patient is recovering, such as calling for help (eg, activating a cardiopulmonary resuscitation team) or proceeding to the exam room as scheduled. CPR: cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
