Шаблон:Infobox company

Gaumard Scientific is a Miami, Florida-based company that creates simulators for major teaching hospitals and nursing schools, medical military training and emergency medical services. The company traces its history to 1946 and has 300 employees.[1]

A World War II trauma physician who explored the use of simulators for battlefield surgery founded Gaumard Scientific and developed the company's first product, which was a synthetic human skeleton used to replace the use of actual human skeletons in medical training programs.[2][3]

The company manufactures simulators and training devices in the following categories:[4]

  • Birthing simulators
    • Examples: Victoria (birthing simulator),[5] Noelle[6][7]

Victoria (birthing simulator)

Шаблон:Infobox product

The Noelle S2200 ("Victoria") is a full scale healthcare education simulator produced by Gaumard Scientific that simulates a mother in labor. The Noelle line of simulators[6][7] including the Victoria model can reproduce events seen during a full-term or premature delivery. Delivery can be programmed to mimic many situations from a normal vaginal birth to a C-section.[1] Complications including breech presentation, shoulder dystocia, maternal bleeding or umbilical cord prolapse can also be simulated.[5] Healthcare personnel can thus hone their skills addressing serious situations that may not occur frequently before working with real patients.[2] Victoria is tetherless and contains a rechargeable battery that can operate Victoria for about 8 hours as she is moved through a continuum of care. Additionally, actual medical equipment, such as a fetal monitor, a pulse oximeter and a blood pressure monitor can be used directly on Victoria.[8]
