Simulation Equipment Overview
The Medical Simulation Center employs the use of a vast array of simulation modalities for inter-disciplinary, multi-specialty clinical training, academic initiatives and research projects.
High-fidelity simulator systems include the Human Patient Simulators, Adult HPS and PediHPS, and the Emergency Care Simulators, Adult ECS and BabySIM. The Maternal and Neonatal Simulation System is an example of a low-fidelity simulation modality utilized at the Medical Simulation Center. Additionally, several computer simulation tools, such as the Bronchoscopy Simulator, are available for education and training. Various task trainers are also utilized for procedure and clinical skills workshops, as they are an invaluable tool in teaching the anatomic landmarks and psychomotor aspects of procedures.
Every effort is made in the Medical Simulation Center to replicate the clinical environment encountered by the learner. Therefore, standard clinical equipment, monitors, and tools are utilized in training exercises and procedural workshops.
