User Reviews and Ratings
★★★★★Very good.
I love the behaviour of this app. It feels quite real, especially when you have a live actor. However, I would very much recommend adding a WPW Delta wave variant of the SVT and sinus rhythms as an option because that is a quite common ECG/EKG finding. I also think there should also be sinc-cardioversion.
★★☆☆☆Needs sound!
Basic but works easily. No sound though.
Would be a really useful app if it had pulse tone that altered with heart rate & pulse oximetry reading.
A few extra features beyond this (waveform trace, BP cuff noise, ECG trace, cycling BP numbers during measurement, etc. would enable you to run relatively high fidelity simulations with a patient actor or a very basic mannequin.
★★★★★Fantastic portable Teaching Tool
I would highly recommend this for any clinical educator.
What a great teaching aid for Mock codes or ACLS and PALS. Very easy to use and very receptive from students. Can't wait to see what the updates bring, this app can only get better.
Their customer service is outstanding as well!!!
Keep up the great work!!!

★★★★★Amazing!
This is an amazing piece of software, it allowed me to do simulation for my residents without the high fidelity mannequins.
I would suggest if you could add the ability to display images of labs, ECGs, x-rays, or CTs. We can provide our own images depending on our scenario.
I loved the ease of using my iPhone as a Bluetooth remote!
★★☆☆☆Defibrillator
If you have an iPhone as your only option, using as the monitor, the device will not allow defibrillator option
