Description: We propose a new immersive and cost-effective tool for training. MedRoom is a VR platform for almost any kind of medical training: from anatomy studies, to patient care and minor surgeries. We recreate medical environments such as a surgery room, where we place a patient with a challenge for the user to solve. He may study the human body or train how to execute a venous access, orotracheal intubation, or even surgical procedures.

Skills and Ideas Taught: Decision-making, spatial visualization, stress control, memorization
