Clinical Simulation Theatre

Access the world's newest medical training technology in the revolutionary Clinical Simulation Theatre.

A perfect replica of a UCH operating theatre, the clinical simulation theatre offers the rare chance of a 'full dress rehearsal' for surgeons with any level of experience to plan procedures, hone techniques and identify potential risks in a controlled, yet extremely realistic environment.

This is the opportunity to attempt a complex procedure, or simply optimise routine procedures, under real pressure and in real-time.

Experienced clinicians or trainees may observe, through one-way glass, the attempts of colleagues to perform a variety of procedures using our high-tech, anatomically accurate and reactive mannequins 'Sim-Men'.

 

Operated by trained technicians out of sight, a prescribed 'script' of timed events (eg, bleed, BP change, cardiac arrest etc) mirrors the real-life hazards and challenges clinicians face in theatre.

Every clinical decision, action and reaction - recorded by cameras and microphones positioned throughout the theatre - is copied onto DVD for subsequent review.

Go a step further and shadow groundbreaking procedures as events unfold in real-time, keeping pace through a direct audio-visual link to a live UCH operating table.

"There are few enough simulation training centres in the world let alone in the UK - and the Learning Hospital's 'Live-Link' operating theatres are new and of a particularly high quality."

The UCH Education Centre's pioneering theatre simulation technology gives clinicians, with any level of experience, the rare chance of a 'full dress rehearsal' - with opportunities to make mistakes, refine techniques and ensure theatre effectiveness - in a controlled, yet extremely realistic setting.

"This is particularly useful for teaching complex procedures and groundbreaking work, while for junior trainees it is valuable for common procedures - it works for everybody."

Corporate Medical Director
