SimPraxis Applications
Most techniques for teaching medical procedures are not interactive. Medical professionals can read about procedures in a medical atlas, watch a video, or watch another doctor perform the procedure. Sometimes a physical simulator or an animal is available for actual practice, but these options are expensive.
Our cognitive-simulator engine, SimPraxis (patent-pending) can be installed from a CD onto a standard computer, and requires only a mouse for interaction. It provides a realistic, interactive experience for learning and rehearsing the steps of a medical procedure. Users feel as though they are performing the procedure themselves by working with real images and putting proper tools to use. Users get instant feedback, providing an almost game-like experience.
SimPraxis is a platform that can be applied to any medical procedure comprised of steps that can be presented visually. Applications include:

Pedagogy of SimPraxis™
Medical procedure content is integrated into SimPraxis through consultation with leaders in respective medical fields. The expert presents the user with a patient history and orientation, then leads the user through the procedure one step at a time. At each step the user performs a realistic simulation of the necessary action, and receives immediate feedback on his or her choices. Hints from our expert are available as needed, and the user’s performance is summarized at the end of the procedure.
