PeriopSim

PeriopSim is designed to bridge the gap between class and the OR. It helps to learn procedures, anticipating the surgeon and instrumentation, before going into the OR. Research shows that PeriopSim performs 6x faster and is more effective than traditional methods. A 1 hour procedure takes ~10 minutes in our simulation.

By practicing, reduce stress and have learners quickly become a confident, effective member of the surgical team.  Competencies assessed include Anticipating the Surgeon, Steps of a Procedure and Instrument Recognition.

PeriopSim’s Experience Portal allows educators to create, manage and track your cohorts of learners. Assign simulation work and review learner competency by experience module.

To try it out yourself, download PeriopSim for your PC, Mac, Chromebook, Android Tablet, iPad and Windows Tablet and create a free account today!  Start with the tutorial and move on to some of the sample simulation experiences.

PeriopSim VR

The future is here today with PeriopSim VR. Your learners can feel what it’s like to enter the OR and work on an unfamiliar procedure before they do it in real life. Can be used solo or with PeriopSim for Desktop/Tablet while leveraging all of the Experience Portal functionality. A 1 hour long procedure takes ~10 minutes in our simulation

In a real life sized OR learners can practice and be assessed on steps of a procedure, anticipating the surgeon and Sterile Field, Sharps Safety, Sterile Technique, Passing Techniques and Instrumentation.

In talking to over 1000 Nurses, Surgical Technologists, Educators, Directors, OR Managers and Surgeons we’ve learned that there are some challenges with training the surgical team with existing methods, time, the nursing shortage and available technologies. Below we highlight some of the key problems that we’ve heard.

Learners

Real world experience is sometimes in short supply.  Simulation can help bridge that gap.  New staff are forced to take evening and weekend shifts where they are inadequately trained in rare or infrequent procedures.

Educators

Educators are faced with providing experience and assessment for learners.  Real world experience is sometimes in short supply. Educators strive to improve confidence and competence prior to going into the OR for the first time.

Directors and OR Managers

Facilitating teamwork in the OR is a constant challenge and preceptors burn out.  Experience is leaving surgery while complexity of procedures is increasing.  This is happening at the same time as the baby boomers retiring.
