Arthur
Arthur
Perfect Simulation for Paediatric Patient Care
Arthur is a 5-8 year old paediatric patient simulator developed and produced to bring paediatric patient care to a whole new level.
When caring for a young child, communication skills are as critical as the technical skills required to manage paediatric emergencies. Arthur has been designed to support those working in child health to effectively communicate, assess, diagnose and treat young patients in a diverse range of critical scenarios and in a variety of clinical settings. Arthur simulates to a wide range of conditions, and provides meaningful learning experiences through his extensive range of features, from a healthy, talking child to being unresponsive with no vital signs.
It is the best simulator for training acute Paediatric emergencies
