iPhone app SimpleSim

Medical simulation is a popular method of education and practice improvement for health care providers.
Unfortunately, most simulation systems are large, immobile, expensive, and complicated to use.
This app is for health care providers interested in using medical simulation for teaching.

This app creates a remotely controlled bedside patient monitor to facilitate medical simulations.
To be effective, the app requires 2 devices (e.g.
phone + tablet).
It functions in 2 modes: monitor (display) and administrator (control the display).
In monitor mode, the app displays customizable vital signs (including heart rate, respiratory rate, pulse oximetry, blood pressure, end-tidal CO2, temperature) with options for cardiac rhythms (sinus, SVT, V fib) and associated waveforms/tracings.
In administrator mode, a control panel offers the ability to immediately activate/inactivate and adjust each of the data fields.

Health educators can use the app with a simple resuscitation dummy (or even a childs baby doll) and a user-provided case to lead an effective medical simulation anywhere from bedside to roadside.,
