What's New in DART Sim

Now in Spanish • The whole app runs in Spanish when the iPad is set to Spanish, using the terms of real Spanish-market monitors (FC, PNI, FR, RCP, DEA). Gear → Language opens the per-app language setting. • Units by country: temperature in °F or °C, EtCO2 in mmHg or kPa, compression depth in cm or inches. Live CPR feedback from a SimCPR chest pad • Pair a SimCPR chest pad or wrist band over Bluetooth (gear → SimCPR Pad). The CPR window shows the learner's real compression rate and depth, a perfusion heart that fills as depth and rate come onto target, and a strip of compression bars that grows across the window one bar per compression, green on target and amber off. • CCF now behaves like perfusion: good compressions build it, poor ones hold it down, and it drains while hands are off, so it has to be rebuilt after every pause. • Adaptive metronome, as on a ZOLL with a compression sensor: silent while the measured rate is 100–120, clicking at 110 only when the learner drifts. • Compressions on the pad are timestamped in Code Track, and the new End CPR key closes the arrest and writes one summary line with start and end time, compression time and the average CCF. CPR window on every device look • The CPR window now slides in between the traces and the controls on the Classic, LIFEPAK 35 and ZOLL looks alike, opening when CPR starts or a pad links. Classic gets a CPR soft key, LIFEPAK a CPR footer key; ZOLL keeps its R key. The code timer sits beside DEPTH. • On the Classic look the ECG and EtCO2 lanes keep their full height while the window is open. Monitor • Classic look: LEAD pill beside CALIPERS cycles the monitoring lead through I–III, aVR–aVF, V1–V6 and PADS, like the ZOLL Lead key. • LIFEPAK 35: the NIBP INTERVAL pill now works, cycling OFF, 2, 3, 5, 10, 15, 30 and 60 minutes for automatic blood pressures, each logged to Code Track. The heart rate stays visible while pacing. • The blood pressure alarm has its own tone, recorded from a real monitor, instead of sharing the heart-rate tone. • Tap anywhere outside the instructor menu to close it. Fixes • Reset now clears Code Track on all three looks. • The instructor menu fits the 10.2-inch iPad again and no longer shifts the ZOLL display. • Fixed a crash when the app was launched while the iPad was locked.

User reviews

era mejor antes

antes de actualizar era una muy buena app ahora perdí todos los casos que tenía y el control remoto no pasa al siguiente paso del caso clínico

Wow, What a great simulator!!

I have to say this application is really convenient for teaching ACLS and PALS courses. I like how cheap it is compared to other options out there. My department purchased iPads specifically to run this program. In the past we paid thousands of dollars on real defibrillators and rhythm generators. We auctioned off our old Zoll monitors we used for training on ebay. We got 6 new iPads and our department had plenty of money left over. Thank you for making such a great product!

D.A.R.T sim problems

On iPad (6th gen), the Classic DART Sim screen overflows the device frame even at the smallest recommended font size, making the Keypad, 12 Lead, NIBP, Mode, Media, and Pacemaker Pause buttons inaccessible, and tapping 12 Lead causes the app to freeze and crash. The Task button freezes the app on every screen in the same way. On the ZOLL X Series Advanced screen, tapping the left-side Parameter button also freezes the app, and this mode is additionally missing a Bluetooth connect button. Please investigate the layout/scaling support for iPad 6th-gen devices and the crash triggers on the 12 Lead, Task, and Parameter buttons, and add the missing Bluetooth connect button to the ZOLL X Series Advanced screen.

They broke a serviceable simulator

I opened the dart sim app that I’ve used for years to teach ACLS, PALS, and EKGs and I found it wrecked. I can no longer use an on-screen menu to select arrhythmias, the visual interface is awkward, the heart rate disappears to “1… “ if it exceeds 100, and many other aggravating and unnecessary changes. The update occurred without warning or permission. I would like to restore my traditional version and have the option to avoid the update
