"The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) required a prototype diagnostic support aid for upper limb disorders (DSAID-ULDs) to be evaluated scientifically in relation to its practical effectiveness and developed for publication. There were two parts to the project: an evaluation of the draft DSAID-ULDs for general practitioners (GPs); and the development and evaluation of the DSAID-ULDs for occupational physicians (OPs). The initial and final experimental studies required the simulation of consultations with Standardised Patients (SPs) so that doctors could test the performance of the AID.
