Description
Platform for surgical simulation and training in medical techniques, aimed at students and healthcare professionals. It consists of the following: A platform for creating tasks based on virtual reality (non-immersive and immersive), which allows virtual reality training tasks, adapted to the students¿ training curricula, to be created, edited and shared. Platforms for training and clinical examinations with structured objectives: By way of example, it makes it possible to deliver first aid courses to medical students in a more immersive way than is possible with traditional courses. It has a physical manikin for carrying out CPR. It also makes it possible to interact with and navigate around different organs, in order to observe their internal structure or identify injuries. Intracranial ultrasound simulation of a premature baby: It allows participants to observe the result of an ultrasound scan of the cranium of a newborn baby and also to observe the different sections while navigating around the cranium. System for training in difficult airway management: Web-based, interactive simulation environments for training in intubation tasks. Laparoscopic surgery simulation platform: The equipment makes it possible to simulate a laparoscopic surgical intervention and, using video analysis, identify what phase of the operation the surgeon is in. It is also possible to carry out sensor realignment and create teaching videos with images from simulations.

Frequently asked question
Can I put my facility in the catalogue?
Yes, if you are from one of the EELISA member, you can log in and create a page for your facility. It will be then validated by a dedicated person at your institution and published. You can edit it at any time.

What happens when I am contacted?
The catalogue is meant to get in touch and start scientific discussion. There is no obligation to accept the collaboration.

Whom to contact if I would like to get more information about the catalogue ?
Each insitution has at least one contact :

I am from UPM, may I publish on the catalogue?
As UPM has its own local catalogue ( ), you first need to publish your facility on the UPM catalogue and then it will be transferred to the EELISA catalogue with no further action from your side.
