SHM Converge Scientific Abstract ePoster Gallery-Chief Intelligence: Empowering Teaching Through Ai Sim Labs

Pdf Summary

<strong>Summary</strong>

The article describes an <strong>AI Simulation Lab (AI Sim Lab)</strong> developed at Loma Linda University Medical Center–Murrieta as a <strong>low-cost, scalable simulation-based teaching tool</strong> for residency education. The goal was to improve resident engagement and confidence in acute inpatient decision-making despite limited time, staffing, and simulation resources.

Chief residents created <strong>interactive AI-generated clinical cases</strong> using structured prompts in about <strong>five minutes of preparation</strong>. These simulations were incorporated into <strong>morning report, noon conference, and downtime on the wards</strong>. The cases covered high-acuity topics such as <strong>shock, ACLS/arrhythmias, respiratory failure, electrolyte emergencies, and neurologic deterioration</strong>. They included <strong>branching scenarios</strong> with changing vitals, labs, and imaging, plus <strong>micro-debriefs and reflective questions</strong>. Content was tailored to <strong>PGY level</strong> and aligned with <strong>ACGME milestones</strong>, with faculty oversight for accuracy.

Reported outcomes were positive: the program saw <strong>increased participation across all training levels</strong>, especially among <strong>interns and quieter learners</strong>. Residents reported <strong>greater confidence managing acute inpatient scenarios</strong>, and some began using AI tools independently for <strong>peer teaching</strong>. Faculty also observed better <strong>communication and cognitive readiness</strong> during real rapid response events.

Overall, the authors conclude that AI-powered simulation offers a <strong>resource-efficient, accessible way to modernize residency education</strong> without requiring additional funding, equipment, or dedicated simulation space.
