Virtumed: Simulation Equipment in Medicine

The vision of medical education had been firm and unshakable over many centuries. Just like in ancient times, a young doctor would watch the actions of his mentor and then repeat what he had seen. Accumulation of experience was a years-long process involving fatal mistakes.

It was not until the second half of the XX century that the time-consuming and inefficient education strategies resulting in low patient safety levels began to be replaced by a whole new learning approach where almost all basic clinical skills and many complex skills are trained on high fidelity patient models instead of humans or laboratory animals. Today, state of the art computer technologies allows us to simulate an endless variety of clinical situations, medical manipulations and even surgical interventions on a patient simulator or a computer screen.

For the first time in history, medical education became synonymous with high patient survival rate. Not only the quality of medical education has not been affected – on the contrary, studying the theory and gaining hands-on skills came to be a faster and far more efficient process.

Nowadays, a medical school is inconceivable without a simulation center featuring all sorts of simulation equipment, virtual trainers, patient simulators and efficient simulation technologies. VIRTUMED Group is an integrator of the above described medical training solutions.
