BP Simulator

The goal of the realistic simulation game BP Simulator is to as closely mimic the experience of taking blood pressure by hand as possible.

You set up the patient by modifying:

•  circumference of the arm

• Arm type: muscular, fat, average, and skinny

• Tightness of the cuff

In the measurement stage, you have control over:

• Pressure from inflation

• Speed of valve release

• Technique and timing

Poor technique makes patients more uncomfortable, so handling should be realistic and cautious. Accuracy, comfort, and time are the three factors that determine your final score; proper medical practice is rewarded rather than just speed.

This simulator is not meant to be an arcade game, but rather a practice and educational tool. Precision, realism, and comprehension of the manual BP process are highlighted.
