Abstract

The group from the University of Copenhagen will investigate how best to provide emergency training for healthcare staff from other specialist fields in order to prevent a shortage of qualified staff to care for the many patients expected to require respirator support. Among other things, the researchers will develop a virtual reality, simulation-based training programme.
