Clinical simulation is being used to teach multi professional teams in a range of environments. Moving simulation from the controlled simulation suite to a range of settings including the ward and prehospital environment presents a challenge for educators who need the scenarios at their fingertips to facilitate effectively. With the ongoing development of new simulation material across the world, collating this material becomes challenging and inefficient. It is also recognised that there was previously no simple way of sharing good quality simulation educational material between educators. As mobile technology becomes ever more accessible, we present a mobile application which enables simulation material to be collated, shared and delivered from a single device - Simulation Tools And Resources (STAR).
Sim Vitals

Simulation is the foundation of high quality medical education. I made this app so that sim could be freely available to all, without breaking the bank. Any device can be the controller or the monitor. Use the same login, or share a session, and the vitals update straight away. Beeps included! The control panel allows you to manipulate the scenario to suit your needs: - Adjust HR, BP, CO2, RR, BIS reading - Trigger cardiac arrest - Adjust the cardiac rhythm - Run through pre-build scenarios which automatically adjust the vitals - Talking points for discussion and Links to resources for further discussion Terms and Conditions: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Simulation Tools And Resources at none against Sim Vitals's 4. Simulation Tools And Resources also leads on iOS requirement (10.0 vs 13.0). Sim Vitals's advantage is update cadence (every 9 months vs every 18 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
