The Simulation Collective is has introduced a new partner to its lineup, Innvo2Learn.

Innov2Learn’s team strives to tackle the healthcare skills shortage by targeting the issues in practical training. As a result, Innov2Learn offers scenario-based simulated medical devices. Their technology has been designed to help learners react accordingly to a given situation in order to be better prepared when facing similar situations in real life.

Their tangible devices are remote-controlled using Bluetooth on a mobile app, available on computers, electronic tablets, and mobile phones. Their devices include the Blood Glucose Meter Simulator, Pulse Oximeter Simulator, and Thermometer Simulator.

Blood Glucose Meter Simulator – The glucometer is inspired by the Accu-chek Inform II, a blood glucose meter used in most hospitals in North America. It is specifically designed for simulation purposes and can be used on a tablet, cell phone, computer or an iPod.

Pulse Oximeter Simulator – OXI allows users to simulate an oxygen saturation measurement (blood oxygenation measurement) and a heart rate (pulse) using a low, medium, high-fidelity manikin or even with a simulated (standardized) patient.

Thermometer Simulator – This device is inspired by the Welch Allyn Suretemp Plus 690, a thermometer used in most hospitals in North America. It allows users to simulate a temperature measurement using a low, medium, high-fidelity manikin or even with a simulated (standardized) patient.
