Resumen
[EN] The use of haptic simulation for emergency procedures in nursing training presents a viable, versatile and affordable alternative
to traditional mannequin environments. In this paper, an evaluation is performed in a virtual environment with a head-mounted
display and haptic devices, and also with a mannequin. We focus on a chest decompression, a life-saving invasive procedure
used for trauma-associated cardiopulmonary resuscitation (and other causes) that every emergency physician and/or nurse
needs to master. Participants’ heart rate and blood pressure were monitored to measure their stress level. In addition, the
NASA Task Load Index questionnaire was used. The results show the approved usability of the VR environment and that
it provides a higher level of immersion compared to the mannequin, with no statistically significant difference in terms of
cognitive load, although the use of VR is perceived as a more difficult task. We can conclude that the use of haptic-enabled
virtual reality simulators has the potential to provide an experience as stressful as the real one while training in a safe and
controlled environment.
