Use contexts and usage patterns of interactive case simulation tools by HIV healthcare providers in a statewide online clinical education program.
The researcher analyzed four interactive case simulation tools (ICSTs) from a statewide online clinical education program. Results have shown that ICSTs are increasingly used by HIV healthcare providers. Smart phone has become the primary usage platform for specific ICSTs. Usage patterns depend on particular ICST modules, usage stages, and use contexts.

Differences in mental workload between traditional and single-incision laparoscopic procedures measured with a secondary task.
The purpose of this study was to use a secondary task to measure the incremental workload demands of single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) procedures versus traditional laparoscopic procedures. It concluded that SILS procedures were significantly more mentally demanding than traditional laparoscopic procedures, as corroborated by primary and secondary tasks scores and subjective ratings.
