How it works

01

Pick a scenario

Choose from 29 OR emergencies across cardiac, airway, allergic, metabolic, obstetric, and safety scenarios.

02

Make the calls

Work through each decision point the way you would at the table, with the Stanford Emergency Manual guiding the sequence.

03

Review and rerun

See exactly which choices got you and run the scenario again until the sequence is automatic.
