Outline of Final Research Achievements

Medical safety and medical quality improvement have been highly demanded in the world. Currently, the simulator has been developed in the medical education and training, but is classified as mannequin model or computational virtual reality model; one can not even fill the gap to a real patient. In this study, we propose a new puncture procedure training system to reproduce the clinical condition virtually with the simulated patients. We have developed a reaction force reproduction device capable of puncturing simulated patients virtually, and capable of presenting a tactile sense as well. Besides, we have constructed a puncture training simulator using this device.
