How to Create a Scenario

Scenarios let you pre-configure a set of vital sign values and apply them to a session with one tap. This guide covers creating, editing, and using scenarios.

Open the scenario editor

  1. From the trainer dashboard, go to Scenarios
  2. Tap Create new scenario
  3. Give your scenario a name (e.g., “Cardiac arrest”, “Normal vitals”, “Respiratory distress”)

Set metric values

For each scenario, configure the four vital signs:

  • Heart rate — Set the target bpm
  • SpO2 — Set the oxygen saturation percentage
  • Blood pressure — Set systolic/diastolic values
  • Respiratory rate — Set breaths per minute

You can also configure which alarms should activate with this scenario.

Entering blood pressure

Blood pressure is entered in mmHg (for example 170 and 80), not in the short form spoken in France (“17 / 8”).

On the tablet, a short-form value is converted to mmHg automatically when you leave the field: 17 becomes 170, 8 becomes 80. Scenarios saved before this conversion existed are repaired the first time the app starts.

Each field accepts only a physiological range:

MeasurementAccepted range
Oxygen saturation (SpO2)0 – 100 %
Pulse30 – 200 /min
Systolic60 – 200 mmHg
Diastolic40 – 130 mmHg
Temperature30 – 43 °C (86 – 109 °F)
Blood glucose36 – 360 mg/dL

A value outside these ranges blocks saving: the offending field is flagged in red and a message states the expected range. A temperature typed in °F is converted to °C before saving; the unit you pick only changes how the tablet displays it.

Leave a field empty to hide that measurement on the simulator screen.

Save your scenario

  1. Review the metric values
  2. Tap Save
  3. The scenario appears in your scenario library

Edit an existing scenario

  1. Open Scenarios from the dashboard
  2. Find the scenario you want to modify
  3. Tap the edit icon
  4. Adjust values and save

Duplicate a scenario

To create a variation of an existing scenario:

  1. Open the scenario you want to copy
  2. Tap Duplicate
  3. Modify the name and values
  4. Save as a new scenario

Pin favorite scenarios

Pin your most-used scenarios for quick access during sessions:

  1. In the scenario library, find the scenario
  2. Tap the pin icon
  3. Pinned scenarios appear at the top of the list and in the session quick-access panel

Apply a scenario during a session

  1. During an active session, open the Scenarios panel
  2. Select a scenario (pinned scenarios appear first)
  3. Tap Apply
  4. All metrics update simultaneously on all connected trainee devices
