The aim of this project is to produce a multimedia computer simulation program, to be used in the training of clinical decision making with nursing students in Swedish schools of nursing. The program is based on a number of clinical scenes filmed in a ward and dealing with the postoperative care of a patient who has undergone reconstruction of the crucial ligament. The student's task is to assess the need for care for a newly postoperative patient and to plan the care for the first 24 hours. Special emphasis is given to pain assessment, pain relief and drug administration.
