HealthStream and Laerdal Medical launched a couple new products for managing and studying clinical simulations.
SimView allows for recording of simulation video, audio, data logs, and how the virtual patient responds to therapy. SimManager is a software-as-a-service (SaaS) application that helps manage simulation routines from scheduling, to progress tracking, to delivering reports while tracking room and equipment availability.
Features of the SimView:
- Captures simulation events with four IP or analog cameras, a microphone, and a computer
- Captures video, audio, data logs, and “patient” vital signs and then replays scenarios with instructor annotations
- Creates a single, time-indexed debriefing file for effective evaluation
- Enables viewing of live events while monitoring vital signs, annotating in real-time
- Provides robust evaluation capabilities via embedded tools and assessment templates
- Integrates with SimCenter product suite, including SimStore, SimDeveloper, and SimManager
