Abstract
Background and Goal of Study
We aimed to develop, implement and evaluate a mobile system using off-the-shelf components, to
record and review simulations and debriefings in four separate rooms during standardized simulation courses at multiple centres in Sweden. Our
requirements were: high quality sound and video; easy to install, use and demount; suitable for transport by courier; no requirement to use personal mobile
devices; not dependent on local intranet; GDPR compliant; automatic remote long-term storage.
Materials and Methods
Four sets of the components shown in Table 1 were acquired to record simulations and debriefings, each with its own 5G internet
connection. The equipment fits in a... (More)
Background and Goal of Study
We aimed to develop, implement and evaluate a mobile system using off-the-shelf components, to

requirements were: high quality sound and video; easy to install, use and demount; suitable for transport by courier; no requirement to use personal mobile
devices; not dependent on local intranet; GDPR compliant; automatic remote long-term storage.
Materials and Methods
Four sets of the components shown in Table 1 were acquired to record simulations and debriefings, each with its own 5G internet
connection. The equipment fits in a standard transport case, total weight 25kg. Automatic storage is at a remote server (AXIS Camera Station S2208).
Faculty access recordings during courses using the AXIS Camera Station® app on iPads.
Table 1 Components of each recording set
1-2 AXIS M3086-V stationary wide-angle (120°) dome cameras mounted on
16x16cm electrical blanking plates
AXIS T8355-A microphone; AXIS T6101 MkII interface
AXIS S3008 Recording unit
Teltonica RUTX50 5G Router providing ethernet connection for recording
unit and Wi-Fi for course faculty
Results and Discussion
The study ran during 7 courses at 5 centres in 2024 (1), comprising 100 full-scale simulations, both in-situ in the OR and ICU, and
at simulation centres. Ease of installation, video-review, demounting and packing were acceptable, transport unproblematic. Sound and picture quality was
generally good and participants did not appear to be perturbed by the cameras. Towards the end of the study, faculty were encouraged to show recordings
of laudable debriefing techniques used by their peers, which resulted in lively and constructive discussion during faculty meetings.
Video review of simulations in medical education is widespread even though evidence of its superiority to non-video-assisted debriefing is sparse. Videoreview
of debriefings in facilitator development programmes is less well described (2): our group believes it is useful and should be formally evaluated.
Future developments may include AI analysis of both simulations and debriefings.
Conclusion(s)
A mobile recording system complying with our specifications is feasible.
