ABCDESIM

AbcdeSIM is an online simulated emergency department with virtual patients. AbcdeSIM was developed by and on initiative of Erasmus University Medical Center. The initial idea came from dr. Stephanie Klein Nagelvoort-Schuit, currently head of Emergency Medicine at Erasmus MC. AbcdeSIM includes a high-fidelity physiological model that contains more than 200 parameters for circulation, respiration, and consciousness. This model creates a very realistic and immersive experience in which the trainee can see the direct results of their chosen diagnostics and treatment. Just like flight-simulators have increased airline safety, abcdeSIM aims to cost-effectively increase patient safety.
