Medviar (MedVR)

"Medviar" the scientific medical company, the developer of VR solutions for simulyatsionny and applied medicine, the direction of ThePsycho company is (MedVR). Resident of an IT cluster of the innovation center "Skolkovo".

The mission of the company is:

• Implementation of technologies of virtual reality (VR) in simulyatsionny medicine;
• Production of medical simulators on the basis of virtual reality (VR);
• Development of simulators of first-aid treatment with modeling of the emergency (E) in VR, on the basis of own system of tracking and a VR suit;
• Upgrade of the medical simulators which are already available in the market;
• Development of VR solutions for applied medicine by means of key technologies of MedVR.

History

2018: ThePsycho started the MedVR direction

On July 9, 2018 the ThePsycho company, the developer of the innovation products in the field of virtual reality, announced start of the MedVR direction on development of the simulyatsionny medical equipment. The company develops products within an IT cluster of Skolkovo Foundation.

As the resident Skolkovo MedVR plans development of 15 different simulators for all fields of simulyatsionny medicine. As of July 9, specialists of this direction got to work on MedVR LAP simulators (the 5th level of realness), MedVR LAP Expert (the 6th level), MedVR CRM 7 Expert (the 7th level). The last is intended for working off psycho - and the sensomotoriki, technical and nontechnical skills and also for training in team work and resource management of a command (Crew Resource Management).

As explained in ThePsycho, the level of realness of educational process is degree of realness of a situation which is modelled by the simulyatsionny equipment during educational process. Assessment of levels of realness of MedVR simulators relies on the following classification:

1. Visual — demonstration of appearance of the person and technology of accomplishment of manipulation;
2. Tactile — the response resistance of fabrics is characteristic;
3. Reactive — the phantom or a dummy reproduces simple active reactions to standard actions;
4. Automated — there are difficult reactions to different external influences;
5. Hardware — simulation of a situation of medical division and the iatrotechnics;
6. Interactive — automatic change of a physiological status in reply influence of the equipment and trainees;
7. Integrated — integration of the simulator and medical devices, simulation of individual physiological reaction to interventions, change of vital parameters at the virtual monitor.

Within the MedVR project the First Aid in VR complex which models emergencies is also developed.
