Harvey® Patient Simulator
Harvey® The Cardiopulmonary Patient Simulator was purchased with a generous donation from The Governing Board of The Women's Committee of The Western Pennsylvania Hospital.
"Harvey" has been used to teach bedside cardiac assessment skills for decades - the longest continuous university-based simulation project in medical education.
"Harvey" can realistically simulate almost any cardiac disease at the touch of a button by varying blood pressure, pulses, heart sounds, and murmurs. The comprehensive "Harvey" curriculum starts with common, less complex conditions and progress to more rare and more complex diseases:
| • Introductory Program • Normal • Innocent Murmur • Aortic Valve Sclerosis • Hypertension • Angina Pectoris • Acute Inferior Myocardial Infarction (MI) • Acute Anterior MI • Ventricular Aneurysm • Mitral Valve Prolapse (MVP) • MVP, Isolated Click and Murmur |
•Mitral Regurgitation (MR), chronic • MR, mild • MR, acute • Mitral Stenosis (MS) with Severe Tricuspid Regurgitation (TR) • MS with mild TR • MS & Regurgitation • Aortic Regurgitation (AR), chronic • AR, acute • Aortic Stenosis |
• Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy • Cardiomyopathy • Acute Pericarditis • Primary Pulmonary Hypertension • Atrial Septal Defect • Ventricular Septal Defect • Patent Ductus Arteriosus • Pulmonary Stenosis • Coarctation of the Aorta • Tetralogy of Fallot |
