Capillary Refill Trainer
Read full descriptionHide full description
Capillary refill is the time it takes for blood flow to return to skin capillaries after pressure is applied that drives blood out of the capillaries. Using this technique can indicate symptoms often related to sepsis, and therefore can aid in identifying sepsis or septic shock. This game focuses on how to conduct a capillary refill test and challenges the user to sharpen their skills through fast-paced simulated assessments.
