Global Healthcare Simulators Market: Overview

Medical/healthcare simulators, also known as patient simulators, are equipments used in the evolving context of healthcare simulation to train and educate medical practitioners on basic clinical skills. Apart from full-body patient simulators, healthcare simulators also include low-fidelity task trainers to train particular skills, obstetrics and gynecology simulators, high-fidelity surgical simulators, and more. Medical simulators can be defined as devices used by healthcare professionals to practice during simulated scenarios.

Medical simulators are highly useful tools in the area of medical simulation and education. The products typically depict parts or full-bodied life-like dolls that respond to learner's actions with real-time physiological reactions, just like they are alive. The simulators are used to educate physicians, train medical professionals, doctors, nurses, midwives, surgeons, anesthetists, military personnel, emergency teams, and others to exercise their clinical skills.

Global Healthcare Simulators Market: Growth Factors

As simulators are used by healthcare institutes or organizations to train health professionals and specialists in general practice, treatment, and surgery to minimize the likelihood of adverse injuries, a primary factor that is estimated to boost the demand for healthcare simulators worldwide is a growing number of medical institutions and healthcare training centers. As per the study of the World Directory of Medical Schools of 2016, nearly one-third of the world's medical schools are located in one of the five countries, which are the U.S., China, India, Pakistan, and Brazil, moreover, 10 countries account for almost 50% of medical schools. In addition, China ranks third in the list of most regarded medical schools globally, following India and Brazil.

In addition, China is reforming its education system by merging new medical schools, widening medical enrolment, and growing class sizes, according to the Journal of Medical Education and Training, 2018, which will promote tourism associated with medical education. A significant number of foreign students are enrolled in China for higher education in the fields of science and arts. As a result, China's medical industry is rising at a trajectory pace indicating increasing demand for medical simulators to train medical students.

Global Healthcare Simulators Market: Segmentation

Advanced Life Support (ALS) group of medical simulators aims to teach skills to expand basic life support to stabilize patients. Intravenous cannulation, manual defibrillation, tracheal intubation, insertion of laryngeal masks, and more are the skills required to do so. ALS simulators and manikins are developed to provide resuscitation training facilities and course providers with high-quality ALS training equipment for various age groups.

Basic Life Support (BLS) medical simulators are equipped with life-like features to assist in effective life support training and to allow hands-on practice for all learners. In addition, BLS manikins provide learners with various types of feedback on their progress.

Clinical Skills Trainers products are used to equip advanced laboratories and skills laboratories in universities and teaching hospitals. They are particularly useful for learners to demonstrate, perform and evaluate skills such as auscultation, chest drainage, laparoscopy, ultrasound, suturing, and more.
