They all move at once, and none of them moves alone.A drug cabinet with immediate effectDopamine, dobutamine, epinephrine, nitroglycerin, furosemide, saline, propranolol, amiodarone, transfusion, antibiotics, the defibrillator and BIPAP ventilatory support. Turning up a vasopressor fixes the pressure and breaks something else. That's the game.Cockpit ModeSwap the monitor for a cockpit of analog instruments: gauges, an annunciator panel with warning lights, and a tabbed multifunction display. Workups — blood gas, blood count, echocardiogram, lactate, Swan-Ganz catheter — are requested and take a few seconds to come back. As in real life, you can't read what you haven't measured. The Swan-Ganz unlocks three gauges that stay dark until then. Switch interfaces mid-run without losing the patient.Free Mode and Exam ModeIn Free Mode you pick the condition or leave it to chance, and score on difficulty and speed: up to +7 if the patient pulls through, −10 if not. Exam Mode chains ten cases back to back and grades you on the average. It is harder than it looks.DisclaimerHemoSim is a video game.
