Abstract
At this work a virtual reality environment is created, in order to simulate a medical training room. This aims to help in nursing teaching process focuses on Toco-surgery, a medical area which match Labor and Delivery. At first, a virtual scene, which replicates the real area were medical students are trained, was designed. Then interaction aimed to show students both procedure and tools they needed to know at medical area. Finally, tests were made with a group of people who already knew procedures and another that were in the learning process.
