BANGKOK, Aug. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Because Every Minute in the ER Matters, the Chulalongkorn University Design for Society Center (CUD4S), in collaboration with the Department of Emergency Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Chulalongkorn University, and King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital of the Thai Red Cross Society, has launched the “ER-VIPE” (Emergency Room – Virtual Interprofessional Education), an innovative medical education tool. 

Using virtual simulation technology, ER-VIPE is designed to train interprofessional teams—doctors, nurses, pharmacists, radiologic technologists, and more—for handling emergency patients. The goal is to improve teamwork, communication, and patient safety while minimizing human errors. 

The launch was accompanied by the academic forum “ER-VIPE: Developing Healthcare Teams for Sustainable Patient Safety” and the TeamSTEPPS Essential and IPE Virtual Simulation Workshop (Cohort 2) held on August 4, 2025, at King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital. The event was presided over by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Chanchai Sittipunt, Dean of the Faculty of Medicine and Director of the hospital. 

Innovation That Combines Heart, Head, and Hands 

Asst. Prof. Dr. Khuansiri Narajeenron, Director of Academic Affairs, Emergency Medicine Department, and Project Leader, described ER-VIPE as a “Med-Edutainment Technology” that merges:

• HEART – Inspirational film content 
• HEAD – Medical knowledge via MOOC 
• HAND – Interactive simulation-based gameplay 

This educational design offers realistic emergency scenarios to build team-based non-technical skills using the TeamSTEPPS framework (Team Strategies and Tools to Enhance Performance and Patient Safety). It supports interprofessional collaboration (IPC) so that health professionals can communicate, make decisions, and act effectively under pressure. 

“Patient care doesn’t depend on who is the most skilled—it depends on how well the team works together. Studies show that most medical errors are not due to a lack of knowledge but due to poor teamwork.” – Asst. Prof. Dr. Khuansiri Narajeenron 

Addressing a Critical National Issue 

• Thailand sees over 400,000 cases/year of unsafe medical care. 
• Economic loss exceeds 9.6 billion baht annually. 
• Globally, deaths from medical errors are 10,000 times higher than airplane crashes. 

The ER-VIPE system allows healthcare professionals to train in a safe, virtual environment without endangering real patients. Participants receive feedback and performance analysis via digital tools. 

Research findings:

• Reduces medical errors by an average of 3.5 cases/month
• Decreases patient deaths by 2.3 cases/month 
• Increases patient satisfaction by nearly 1% monthly 

CUD4S and Chula Promote National Expansion 

Dr. Tatsawan Preedawiphat, Director of CUD4S, emphasized that design isn’t just about architecture—it’s also about systems that improve lives. ER-VIPE, as a social enterprise model, integrates healthcare, education, and technology to address systemic healthcare safety gaps. 

Piloted in five hospitals, the program showed:

• 28% improvement in communication 
• 38 fewer critical errors in ER scenarios 
• Significant reduction in staff burnout 

National Policy Discussions: Toward “Zero Harm 2030” 

The event marked the first forum gathering leaders from nine major health professional organizations to discuss scaling ER-VIPE to a national health system level:

• Training in all healthcare institutions 
• MOUs with key organizations 
• Nationally recognized continuing education credits (CME, CNE, etc.) 
• Inclusion in health sciences higher education curriculum 

Nine participating professional organizations:

1. The Medical Council of Thailand 
2. The Nursing Council 
3. The Pharmacy Council 
4. The Medical Technology Council 
5. The Radiological Technology Council 
6. The Division of Medical Facilities, Ministry of Public Health 
7. The College of Emergency Physicians of Thailand 
8. The Hospital Administrators Association 
9. The Healthcare Accreditation Institute 

They collectively agreed that interprofessional teamwork and communication are crucial to patient safety, and fragmented systems and communication breakdowns are major causes of errors—not individual incompetence. 

A Path Toward Safer Healthcare 

The panel proposed national adoption of TeamSTEPPS and Interprofessional Collaboration (IPC) principles, integrated into:

• Health Service Plans
• Professional training 
• Hospital Accreditation (HA) standards 

They also urged the government to support policy and resources for sustainable improvement in patient care and workforce well-being.

GUIYANG, China, Aug. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — A news report by Huanqiu.com

The “game + culture” cross-border experiment between the open-world adventure RPG Genshin Impact and Guizhou has amplified the charm of Guizhou’s intangible cultural heritages. According to Ma Yi, a municipal representative inheritor of Daloushan rattan weaving, an intangible cultural heritage program, such interactive event is of milestone significance for the inheritance and development of the intangible cultural heritages in Guizhou. It opens a door towards the youth world, broadens the path of passing down intangible cultural heritages, and finds a new foothold for the ancient intangible cultural heritages amid the development wave of contemporary technology and culture.

The Miao batik technique has amazed and attracted young game players. The virtual rattan weaving product made by the game character “Lan Yan” and the physical rattan weaving artworks from the intangible cultural heritage inheritor of Guizhou are presented here to start a cultural dialogue beyond temporal and spatial boundaries. “I was very expected and pleased when learning that Genshin Impact, a video game highly popular among the young generation intended to collaborate with Guizhou’s intangible cultural heritages, because it gives me a new hope of witnessing the rejuvenation of traditional skills and techniques in the new era”, commented by Ma Yi.

When playing the game of Genshin Impact, players have come to know and love the batik art, an intangible cultural heritage of Guizhou. The Miao people ingeniously apply two colors, blue and white to printing patterns including butterfly, bird and dragon on plain cloth. Cheng Hao, a batik designer explained, “In addition to its artistic value, Miao batik has recorded the long history of the Miao ethnic group. Nowadays, we integrate these batik elements into our designs, hoping to carry forward the intangible cultural heritage.”

Cheng Hao had lived with female batik workers in Danzhai, Guizhou for eight years. In his opinion, the Miao culture purifies his mind and enriches his inspirations by reflecting the simple and unadorned worldview of Miao locals. When creating batik patterns, designers must truly understand their batik partnering workers as if they are family members, so as to better present their creative concepts and finally work out excellent fashion design of batik.

“For example, we have an artwork called Returning to the Dreamlike Peach Blossom Spring. At the very beginning, the batik worker did not know what the Peach Blossom Spring is. Then we told her the story of Tao Yuanming, a literatus of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and she created the beautiful patterns according to her own distinct understanding.” Cheng Hao expressed that the final works delicately depicts the life scenes of raising silkworms, weaving cloth and spinning yarns, and also contains some ancient totems such as flowers, birds, fish and insects commonly-seen in life, and geometric patterns as well.

In addition to batik, Miao embroidery is another unique carrier of the charming intangible cultural heritage. “This is the pattern of Mom Butterfly. The patterns of Miao embroidery not only show the totem worship of Miao people, but also deliver rich historical and cultural messages of the Miao ethnic group, such as butterfly.” Li Wenfang, an inheritor of Miao embroidery, shared the cultural origin of Miao embroidery patterns. According to the ancient myths described in the Ancient Odes of the Miao People passed down through generations, the “Mom Butterfly” fell in love with foam on the water surface, and laid 12 eggs, which later hatched the ancestors of all things in the world.

Miao embroidery displays the superior craftsmanship of Miao people, and embodies their expectations for a better life. Every stitch of Miao embroidery epitomizes the respect for the nature and anticipation for the future. Li Wenfang explained that among these patterns, pomegranate symbolizes good fortune and fertility, fish metaphorizes prosperity and vigorous vitality, and dragon can be classified into swimming dragon, flying dragon and other types. The elder Miao people have been passing on the cultural symbols and historical stories in the form of Miao embroidery patterns for the relay of the traditional culture and wisdom of the Miao ethnic group.

Yang Naijin, an inheritor of the intangible cultural heritage of batik further elaborated on the making process of batik. It mainly uses natural materials like beeswax and indigo plant. Beeswax is applied to drawing patterns and preventing dyeing, while indigo plant to dyeing. After the steps of drawing patterns, applying beeswax, dyeing and removing beeswax, unique blue-and-white patterns are formed at the end.

“The combination of family inheritance and modern design leads to the revival of the batik art in the new era, particularly in such fields as games and fashion design.” Yang Naijin mentioned that batik patterns can be applied more to cartoons and games popular among young people in the future. For instance, Genshin Impact and batik have collaborated in Guizhou, allowing these young people to experience and learn the batik art, and create their favorite batik works. Batik can be further applied to decorative items, scarves, bags, and even interior decoration in the form of murals, showcasing the Miao style and carrying forward the intangible cultural heritage.
