title = "Serious gaming for orthotopic liver transplantation anesthesia: industry track demo proposal",
abstract = "Patients with end-stage liver disease comprise a patient population whose only definitive treatment is liver transplantation. Anesthetic technique for orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) requires specialized knowledge and skills because of the complications associated with the procedure and institution-specific equipment and guidelines. Normal 'on the job' training may be inadequate, as transplants do not happen on a fixed schedule and the number of transplants that occur in a given year are very small relative to other types of surgeries. Therefore, there is a need for additional training in proper anesthetic technique for OLT. The objective of this project is to develop a serious game designed to teach best practices for the anesthetic management of an OLT that can be used by practitioners to better their skills.",
