dV-Trainer™
Proven and Cost-effective Training for the da Vinci® Surgical System
Why dV-Trainer?
Thought Leadership in Robotic Simulation & Training
dV-Trainer™, introduced in 2007, was the “original” robotic surgery simulator. The Skills Simulator for the da Vinci Si is based on Mimic’s proprietary simulation technology. The joint install base is approaching 1,000 simulators, making this by far the most widely adopted simulation platform for robotic simulation.
Cost-effective and Accessible Training
dV-Trainer™ is a “stand-alone” simulator built on a compact, portable, and cost-effective hardware platform. According to numerous independent validation studies, it closely reproduces the look and feel of the da Vinci®system. Placed outside the OR, dV-Trainer™ provides access to training 24/7.
Industry-leading Metrics and Scoring System
dV-Trainer™ utilizes the latest version of Mimic’s MScore™ for objective performance evaluation. It incorporates data collected from over 100 experienced surgeons with over 75 robotic cases to establish proficiency based scoring baselines – an industry first and dV-Trainer™ exclusive.
Advanced Curriculum Development and Sharing
dV-Trainer™ comes with best-in-class administration tools for educators to create, import and export customized training protocols. dV-Trainer curricula can be uploaded and shared on Mimic’s MShare, an new online portal for collaboration, providing access to validated simulation curricula from top institutions.
State-of-the-Art Robotic Surgery Simulation
dV-Trainer™ is exclusively built on Mimic’s new simulation platform, MSim™ 2.0. Based on the latest rendering technology, it produces the most realistic and life-like simulation in the industry, and positions the dV-Trainer solution for soon-to-come advanced procedure specific content.
