MUSC Healthcare Simulation Center Inventory

Facilities

The MUSC HSC occupies approximately 12,000 square feet of space on the second floor of the Colbert Library Building with 13 flexible simulation spaces of varying types and sizes to meet a broad range of simulation-based educational objectives. Simulation center staff work with simulation session sponsors to assign the most appropriate simulation spaces to meet the educational objectives.

Simulators and Task Trainers

The center's inventory of simulators includes 30+ mid to high fidelity manikins and over 100 task trainers to support a broad range of simulation-based educational objectives. Simulation center staff work with simulation session sponsors to assign the most appropriate simulators to meet the educational objectives.

Adult high-fidelity manikins include:

•  SimMan 3G
•  SimMan Essential
•  SimMan ALS
•  Nursing Anne Simulator
•  SimMom (with or without the automatic delivery system or the non-pregnant abdominal insert)

Pediatric high-fidelity manikins include:

• SimJunior
•  SimBaby
•  SimNewB

 All high-fidelity manikins are run using the LLEAP (Laerdal Learning Application) software. Over 90% of high-fidelity simulation sessions use custom scenarios programmed by MUSC HSC staff.
