Equipment

The Medical Simulation Center, part of the UVA Simulation Collaborative, uses a broad range of simulation modalities to support interdisciplinary, multi-specialty clinical training, academic initiatives, and research.

The Center’s equipment includes high-fidelity manikin-based patient simulators (adult, pediatric, infant, neonatal, and obstetric/birthing), virtual reality trainers for procedures such as endoscopy, bronchoscopy, and ultrasound (TEE, TTE, and FAST), and task trainers used to teach anatomic landmarks and the psychomotor skills required for clinical procedures.

To closely replicate real clinical settings, the Center uses standard clinical equipment, monitors, and tools throughout its training exercises and procedural workshops.
