The World’s Most Advanced Patient Simulator
When teaching new healthcare professionals about preterm care, experienced neonatologist and SIMCharacters Founder Dr. Jens Schwindt was deeply concerned by the limited pathologies and unrealistic anatomy offered by modern day preterm simulators. Determined to improve the outcomes of more than 15 million preterm births a year, in 2012 Jens founded SIMCharacters. Innovating beyond the limitations of high-fidelity simulator technology Paul was developed by a team of experts in the fields of neonatology, software development, mechanical engineering, Hollywood special effects design, and animatronics.
Today Paul provides next generation preterm simulator features including an anatomically correct 3D printed larynx based on real-life preterm MRI scans, physiological and pathological breathing patterns, highly realistic internal and external anatomical structures, and convincingly lifelike clinical practice features.
With Paul, SIMCharacters is taking the next step in the future of medical simulation. High fidelity was yesterday – the future belongs to High Emotion Simulation. Jens and the SIMCharacters team know that creating High Emotion Simulation requires understanding and empathy with the teams, families, and programs caring tirelessly for preterm newborns.
