HPS

HPS delivers uncompromising realism in every session. As the only simulator capable of responding to real anesthetic agents and oxygen therapy, it enables learners to practice high-risk, low-frequency interventions in a safe and controlled environment.

Whether preparing for emergency intubation, anesthetic delivery, CPR, or ventilator management, HPS models physiology dynamically, empowering learners to make critical decisions based on patient response.

From trauma to pharmacology to pulmonary care, HPS adapts to your training priorities with unmatched fidelity.

Explore HPS Advanced Features

Airway & Breathing

Demonstrate head tilt/chin lift, execute orotracheal and nasotracheal intubation, deliver BVM ventilation, perform cricothyrotomy, manage spontaneous respiration, adjust lung compliance, and practice bilateral needle decompression.

Anesthesia & Ventilation

Administer anesthetic gases, monitor oxygen consumption and CO₂ exhalation, trigger ventilators, simulate resistance, and manage fight-the-ventilator scenarios.

Cardiac

Deliver live defibrillation and pacing, interpret dynamic ECGs, simulate cardiac output, and insert pulmonary artery catheters with real-time waveform monitoring.

Circulatory

Measure blood pressure by auscultation and palpation on the left arm, assess six peripheral pulses, and evaluate physiologic response to effective chest compressions.

Drug Recognition

Identify drugs using barcode scanning, track doses, and observe automatic physiologic responses to over 50 medications.

Neurologic

Assess reactive pupils, observe blinking and convulsions, and monitor automatic deterioration linked to respiratory or cardiac compromise.

Trauma & Urology

Evaluate secretions, perform diagnostic peritoneal lavage and pericardiocentesis, practice urinary catheterization with interchangeable genitalia, and monitor fluid-free urine output.

Vascular Access

Practice IV cannulation with realistic flashback, manage right jugular and left femoral IV lines, and perform right deltoid intramuscular injections.
