## What is SimMon?

SimMon is a basic remote controlled patient monitor for full scale medical simulation.

Using SimMon on any pair of devices, iOS 13 or newer, gives you a simple remotely controlled simulated patient monitor.

An iPad makes for an ideal multi-touch controlled remote and the big screen makes a great bedside patient monitor.

Open SimMon on your two devices of choice and connect via WiFi or Bluetooth. Change the blood pressure, oxygen saturation, respiration rate or heart rate by touching the value and dragging your finger up or down.

### 5/5 — Excellent software

*2025-05-03, version 1.8.13*

So easy to use and does what other more complex and expensive life support and Resus software

### 5/5 — Great Teaching Tool

*2025-02-12, version 1.8.13*

I love this app! I am an NRP instructor, and the students love having a simulation monitor experience- it makes the scenarios more realistic

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2024-11-21, version 1.8.12*

I’m a clinical educator and we use SimMon for all our insitu simulation, as well as at our sim center. It’s super easy to use and has a minimalistic interface which I love. Sliding your finger up or down on the vital sign to quickly change the rate/value is genius. A lot of the time we don’t have a sim tech to run a simulator, so using SimMon allows me to easily adjust vitals while still being able to watch the learners. We have the app on all our iPad sets!

### 5/5 — Great little tool

*2024-02-27, version 1.8.12*

We’ve run hundreds of neonatal resus sims enhanced by this app. Thanks!

### 2/5 — EKG Rhythmus vom Chirurgen entwickelt

*2023-06-26*

SVT ist ein SR
VT ist ein SR usw.
Schenkelblock ist irritierend.
Also da hätte ich mir deutlich mehr gewünscht

**Developer response:** Hello 👋 I am in the process of updating some of the rhythms contact me at support@castleandersen.dk if you are looking for a specific change /Niels

### 3/5 — No PASP/ PADP

*2023-05-31, version 1.8.11*

The app is easy to use but the main purpose of incorporating the pulmonary artery simulated element is to teach on PADP elevations for left sided issue identification.

### 4/5 — Pretty good VT doesn’t seem to work

*2023-02-14, version 1.8.11*

Pretty good, but unable to get VT to work in stand alone mode.

### 5/5 — Superb

*2022-12-30, version 1.8.11*

Outstanding, simple and effective for in-situ sims to increase fidelity.

### 1/5 — 問い合わせに返信がない

*2022-09-11*

iPad、iPhoneの両方で愛用させて頂いておりました。 iPadの方のアプリが立ち上がらなくなり、デベロッパーに問い合わせたのですが、返事がありません…

**Developer response:** Hi 👋,
Can you try and e-mail me at support@castleandersen.dk? Delete the app off your device and reinstall - most likely cause is missing permissions.
/Niels

### 1/5 — Wrong rhythm shown and no help from support

*2022-08-26, version 1.8.10*

Contacted support multiple times and no response. Will update if they get back to me
