Medical Simulation is a highly valuable tool for preparing healthcare professionals and first responders in dealing with low frequency, high stakes life-threatening medical conditions.Realism, cost, and portability are three common obstacles cited in the literature as barriers to greater use of simulation.MedCogntion's aim is to create change in healthcare by lowering the barriers of access to medical simulation through leveraging cutting-edge technology.MedCognition leveraged the experience of seasoned clinicians, educators, and computer scientists to create PerSim(TM), a holographic patient simulator.PerSim(TM) gives instructors a vital tool that enhances simulation training the following ways:•Instructors can create on demand emergencies in adult and child models.•Instructors are able to teach subtle exam findings that have been nearly impossible to demonstrate- until now.•Leverages the single most powerful tool healthcare professionals have- their own neural pathways.•Engages the skills of visual and auditory assessment creating immersion and eliciting an emotional response.•PerSim(TM) is a hologram that can overlay onto common low-fidelity procedure manakins found in most training spaces. This allows for a more meaningful simulation experience.•PerSim(TM)’s cost is within reach for those without the budget to spend on costly high end, “high-fidelity” manakins.•PerSim(TM) was designed to be a portable system allowing for in-situ medical simulation training.•In-situ medical simulation training creates greater opportunities to learn the strengths and weaknesses of actual clinical work environments.PerSim(TM) delivers dynamic realism in medical simulation preparing you for moments when being your best saves lives.Message me directly on LinkedIn to learn more about PerSim.I am driven to succeed while building up others around me.
