Hemostasis Training Simulation
The webpage presents an online Unity-based experimental simulation platform hosted on Unity Play, titled Simulation Learning Lab. It is a browser-accessible interactive environment built with the Unity engine and deployed using WebGL technology, allowing users to run a 3D simulation directly without installing any local software. The platform is designed for simulation-driven learning, where users can interact with virtual scenes, objects, and procedural workflows that emulate real-world laboratory or training scenarios. Through mouse and keyboard interactions, users can explore the environment, follow predefined operational steps, and observe system feedback in real time. As a typical Unity Play deployment, the simulation emphasizes accessibility, visual realism, and interactivity, making it well suited as a supplementary teaching tool and a proof-of-concept for virtual laboratory training systems.
Hemostasis refers to the physiological processes by which the body stops bleeding following vascular injury. This process relies on a tightly regulated cascade of interactions among multiple blood components and coagulation factors. Imbalances or deficiencies in these factors can impair normal hemostasis. Such abnormalities are commonly detected and characterized through laboratory experiments performed on patient plasma samples, including:
1. Prothrombin Time–International Normalized Ratio (PT-INR)
2. Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT)
3. Fibrinogen
These experiments can be performed manually; however, in routine clinical practice they are typically conducted using automated or semi-automated analyzers. In this course, you will simulate the execution of these hemostasis assays using partial automation with the Stago Start 4 Hemostasis Analyzer. While the procedural workflow of each experiment is broadly similar, they differ in critical aspects such as reagent selection and assay conditions.
