PMCID: PMC2850679  PMID: 8130587

Abstract

This manuscript describes a method for using digital-video technology to create patient simulations in which the simulated patient is always active on the computer screen. We outline the technical method we have developed, and we present the lessons learned in applying the method to develop a prototype patient simulation.
