Video Review

Enable Simulation
Video Review

  • Access a single video repository of all scenarios performed within a simulation center.

  • Videos are automatically and comprehensively indexed for searchability, with zero user intervention.

Optimize Surgical Quality and Standardize Care

  • Automatic Outlier Detection: Access AI-powered event detection to flag cases where patient physiologic data or procedural factors exceed the normal rage. Automatically identify trends in clinical and operational outliers.



  • Flagged Case Reports: Enable surgical teams to flag cases of interest and generate reports that include detailed procedural information and segments of deidentified video, simplifying case review and streamlining quality improvement efforts. 


  • Network Benchmarking: Benchmark surgical safety metrics within your organization against leading institutions in the Surgical Safety Network to promote transparency and foster a culture of continuous improvement.

Improve Patient Safety and Quality

Improve Patient Safety and Quality

Improve Patient Safety and Quality

  • Train healthcare providers on important quality and patient safety initiatives within your department or the broader institution.  

  • Reinforce high-reliability principles throughout simulation scenarios to achieve zero preventable harm to patients, family members, and staff in real-world scenarios. 
  • Team Communication: Ensure care team alignment about procedure details, surgical site, patient allergies, equipment needs, instrument counts, and patient-specific concerns, improving overall compliance while providing transparency to foster culture change. 

  • Contingency Planning and Readiness: Surface patient risks and equipment status to prepare staff for potential challenges, decreasing the risk of mortality, ICU admission rates, and inpatient length of stay by reducing the likelihood of intraoperative and postoperative complications. 

  • Standardized Care: Support consistent care delivery protocols to reduce care variation to optimize patient outcomes, improve patient and staff satisfaction, and reduce the cost of care.
