PerSim™ Augmented Reality Medical Simulation

Company: Nasco

• Provides an immersive, realistic simulation experience that helps challenge clinical assessment and decision-making skills
• Can depict subtle visual cues to help develop the experience level of clinicians to immediately recognize the severity of illness in patients
• Enables the creation of highly realistic, high-stakes clinical scenarios in a variety of settings
• Projects a 3-D virtual patient using innovative holographic technology
• Animated holographic model is designed to lay over traditional procedure manikins
• Perform procedures on the manikin while being able to see the realistic depictions of clinical states using augmented reality technology
• Accurately depicts subtle changes in a patients physical appearance
• Examples:
• In respiratory distress animations, simulator slowly increases respiratory rate and engages accessory muscles in a realistic way to demonstrate increased effort to breathe
• Can accurately depict a floppy, septic child that then degrades into a generalized tonic clonic seizure
• Shows differing degrees of diaphoresis and cyanosis, from a small amount of sweat on the forehead to full body involvement
• Mix and match animations and textures to create a myriad of clinical conditions in just minutes
• Augmented reality technology reduces instructor involvement in simulations no verbal cues needed, just change the appearance of the simulation based on learners interventions
• Allows learners to practice caring for critically ill patients in real-world environments in an ambulance, along the side of the road, or in an apartment
• Sets up in just minutes
• Overlays on both adult and infant manikins
• Includes 2 halo lenses and 2 tablets (1 each for instructor and learner)
