Simulation center tests new technologies

A flexible simulation environment allows technology innovators to test their products


The OSF Simulation Stage, a flexible simulation environment, allows healthcare technology innovators to test their products in real-world clinical environments, according to an article on the Health Facilities Management website.

The OSF Simulation Stage’s first configuration will model a hospital observation room that will allow developers to innovate technologies to improve the efficiency, quality and financial stability of hospital observation units, the article said.

“Simulation provides an invaluable opportunity for testing, training and iteration in a safe and controlled environment,” John Vozenilek, M.D., vice president and chief medical officer for Jump Trading Simulation & Education Center, said in the article.

The simulation stage accelerating the testing process and paves the way for outside evaluation to shape new ideas.
