Human Patient Simulators
A life-sized human-like simulator representing a patient. The simulators breathe, have breath sounds, heart tones and palpable pulses. The Davis Global Center is home to adult, pediatric, trauma, obstetric and neonatal simulators. Each simulator has a monitor that can display vital signs including, blood pressure, pulse oximeter and EKGs.
