physioSim Home - PhysioSim Corp.

physioSim.org is a non-profit 501(c)3 corporation dedicated to building an internet-based "computer human" for the benefit of students and educators in the fields of anatomy & physiology, nursing, medicine, pre-hospital EMS, and health sciences.

The "computer human" is a mathematical model that simulates discrete physiology concepts, isolated and integrated organ system functions, and pathological conditions. Future efforts will enable physiologic responses to clinical interventions.

Our learning tools present complex physiology concepts incrementally. We allow the student to interact and experiment with the physioSim computer human in order to solidify their understanding. We provide guided exercises to help them along the way.

We believe that true learning takes place when students can practice making critical decisions and observe the consequences of their actions, not just by reading and memorizing facts.

Select from the following simulators:

		Cardiovascular Physiology and Pathology If you are having problems launching this application click here to see that you have the necessary prerequisites on your computer.

		Pulmonary Altitude Physiology

		Vital Signs Simulator This learning tool allows you to practice taking and assessing patient vital signs. Exercises include randomly generated simulations of pulse, respiration, blood pressure, eye response. You will be able to assess the clinical meaning of these in a variety of patients - from infants to geriatrics.
