BPsim from WorldPoint, Inc.

January 2014

The challenge in simulation is achieving a near-real scenario that enables providers to practice emergency medicine just like they'd perform it in the field on real patients.

Modern technology is coming closer than ever to duplicating what it feels like to treat a live patient, and the BPsim from WorldPoint, Inc. taps into that realism to provide a controlled practice to achieve high competency in detecting and measuring blood pressure. Managed by a tablet, it can be programmed for any blood pressure range.

The BPsim is designed to simulate an analog sphygmomanometer with realistic Korotkoff sounds. It has programmable systolic and diastolic settings, programmable heart rate, and works with all standard stethoscopes. With this technology EMS educators can now replicate many of the signs and symptoms that are visible or audible while attaining a blood pressure in the comfort of the classroom.
