About PeriopSim
PeriopSim is a medical simulation training application designed for perioperative nurses and surgical team members to learn instruments and procedures safely before surgery. It offers step-by-step guidance using real surgical videos and voice narration, allowing users to practice in a realistic environment. The app aims to reduce orientation time for new nurses by preparing them before they enter the operating room, thereby increasing learner confidence in unfamiliar procedures. PeriopSim provides detailed analytics reports to track individual and group learning progress and supports cost-effective training through secure iPad sharing among student cohorts, teams, or departments. Developed and tested through collaborative research studies with surgeons, nurses, and educators, PeriopSim is used in over 200 facilities.
