Shock Management Simulator

Manage shocked patients on a live ICU monitor. Change the haemodynamics, choose fluids, vasopressors or inotropes, and see how the cardiovascular equations respond.

  • Live patient monitor
  • 4 training scenarios
  • Echo, ultrasound, bloods and CXR
  • Lifetime access

See the physiology move when you treat.

Fix one variable, change another and watch the rest of the circulation respond, so the equations behind shock finally make sense.

What's inside

A shocked patient you can treat, again and again

Patient monitor

Live ECG, plethysmography and respiration traces, with capnography, arterial line and CVP line on demand.

Four training scenarios

Work through four colour-coded shock scenarios, each with its own treatment choices.

Treatment options

Choose fluids, vasopressors or inotropes, and read an explanation of each choice.

Investigations

Request echo, ultrasound, biochemistry and a chest X-ray to support your decisions.

Cardiovascular equation calculator

SVR and cardiac output equations update live as you change the patient.

Interactive parameters

Fix any variable to hold it constant and see how the others change to keep the equations true.

Parameters you control

Nine variables, all linked

Pressure

  • Mean arterial pressure
  • Central venous pressure
  • Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure

Flow

  • Cardiac output
  • Stroke volume
  • Heart rate

Resistance, lungs and oxygen

  • Systemic vascular resistance
  • Extravascular lung water
  • Oxygen saturation

How it works

Practise at your own pace

  1. Pick a scenarioStart one of the four shock scenarios.
  2. AssessRead the monitor and request echo, ultrasound, bloods or a chest X-ray.
  3. TreatChoose fluids, a vasopressor or an inotrope and read why it helps, or doesn't.
  4. ExploreFix and change variables to see the cardiovascular equations at work.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost?

ยฃ25, paid once, for lifetime access.

How do I open the simulator after I pay?
