Discover Apollo Simulation Centre: Leading the Way in Medical Simulation Training.

Welcome to the Apollo Simulation Centre (ASC), a pioneering medical simulation centre designed to redefine the standards of medical training and education. At ASC, we are committed to empowering healthcare professionals with state-of-the-art simulation technologies and a curriculum that sets the benchmark for excellence worldwide.

What we do?

High-Fidelity Manikins for Realistic Training

Our use of hi-fidelity manikins distinguishes our training methodology. These sophisticated models simulate human physiological conditions with remarkable accuracy, allowing trainees to practice and hone their skills in a risk-free setting. The futuristic high fidelity manikins in customizable simulation environments can help mimic real life scenarios. Sudden emergencies and complications in critical care, obstetrics and pediatrics can be simulated in these lifelike manikins. Whether it’s assessing cardiac emergencies or managing airway complications, our manikins provide an invaluable tool for critical hands-on practice.

Advanced Surgical and Analytics Driven Trainers

For those specializing in surgery, our advanced surgical trainers offer a dynamic platform to practice and perfect surgical techniques. These state-of-the-art analytics driven trainers replicate the complexities of human anatomy and surgical interventions, providing an unmatched level of detail and realism that prepares trainees for the operating room. The difficulty levels can be manipulated to suit the needs of the learner, especially in airway management and resuscitation and the feedback software incorporated in the trainers provides an objective assessment for skill aquaintance.

Best Simulation Curriculum Tailored for Excellence

At ASC, we pride ourselves on our best-in-class simulation curriculum that is meticulously designed to address the diverse needs of healthcare professionals. Each course is crafted to enhance technical skills, critical thinking, and teamwork, ensuring that every trainee not only learns the theory but also masters the application with high competence.

Empowering Healthcare Professionals

Our mission at Apollo Simulation Centre is clear—to shape the future of medical learning through innovative simulations. We are dedicated to providing healthcare professionals with realistic and effective training experiences that empower them to deliver superior care and treatment. 

Dr. Prathap C. Reddy, Founder-Chairman of the Apollo Hospitals Group, is the visionary architect of modern Indian healthcare. He is best described as a compassionate humanitarian who dedicated his life to bringing world-class healthcare within the economic and geographic reach of millions.

 

In 1983, Dr. Reddy embarked on an extraordinary journey by establishing Apollo Hospitals, which not only revolutionized healthcare in India but also pioneered the private healthcare industry in India. The Apollo model of care inspired many, and at present, over 300 other large, high-quality hospitals have elevated the quality of care in India, making it available at a tenth of the international cost and changing the way people in the country live and access healthcare.

 

Dr. Prathap C. Reddy

Founder-Chairman

The Government of India mandates simulation based training in all undergraduate programs. It is only prudent that post graduate and super speciality doctors have a preemptive knowledge of difficult clinical situations before treating real patients.

Ultra Sound Simulator

The innovative ultrasound simulator enables learners to correlate the scanned image simultaneously with the internal anatomy for better proficiency. The sections of anatomy can be demonstrated in a three- dimensional view to enhance the understanding of learners. The simulator is also equipped with modules for ultrasound guided interventions.

Endo-Laparoscopy Simulator

The endo-laparoscopy simulators are equipped with up-to-date technology to help learners become confident and adept at hand-eye coordination and equipment dexterity. Basic and advanced procedures in laparoscopy, bronchoscopy, hysteroscopy and endoscopy can be learnt and updated using the high-tech instruments.

Endo-Vascular Simulator

The vascular intervention simulator is the latest and the first of its kind in Asia, and has provision for training in intricate vascular abnormalities. Real patient images can be incorporated and training undertaken before a complex procedure is performed on the patient.

Task Trainers

Task trainers that we use are lifelike anatomical models designed to enhance the procedural skill acquisition of healthcare learners. These specialized simulators allow students to repetitively practice techniques, such as surgical procedures, without the risk of harming actual patients. This method supports a safe learning environment where errors become valuable lessons. By focusing on specific skills, task trainers provide targeted practice that is crucial for building confidence and competence in medical procedures before real-life application
