Maverick Simulation Solutions has rolled out a next-generation high-fidelity critical care simulator developed and manufactured in India, marking a significant step in expanding clinical skills training for healthcare professionals across the country.
The simulator, named SIDDH, is a life-size, full-body adult patient model weighing around 65 kg that replicates real-world critical care scenarios with high physiological accuracy. It integrates advanced lung simulation technology, artificial intelligence-enhanced ultrasound capabilities and real-time physiological response systems to create an immersive, clinically realistic training environment for doctors, nurses, paramedics and medical students.
SIDDH is designed to support comprehensive critical care training, including cardiac emergencies, respiratory distress, trauma response and complex airway management. Its dynamic simulation engine continuously adapts to learner interventions such as ventilator adjustments, airway management decisions and fluid resuscitation, providing feedback that mirrors real clinical conditions.
A standout feature of the simulator is its AI-powered ultrasound module, which includes a library of over 1,000 clinical cases with precise probe tracking, intelligent scoring and adaptive guidance. Optional modules extend training to structured assessments, team-based scenarios, communication exercises and cloud-based performance analytics, enabling institutions to monitor and evaluate competency development over time.
The launch event in New Delhi brought together members of the medical community, and early installations of SIDDH have already been completed at multiple campuses of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences and a central government hospital in the capital. These early adoptions suggest strong interest in simulation-based education as a way to enhance clinical decision-making and procedural confidence before practitioners treat real patients.
Maverick Simulation Solutions, which has a history of designing and producing medical training tools domestically, said the new simulator aligns with its broader strategy to accelerate the digital transformation of medical education. By investing in research, engineering and AI integration, the company is positioning India as both a consumer and creator of advanced simulation technologies, reducing reliance on imported equipment while meeting global standards.
Simulation-based training is increasingly recognized as a critical pathway for improving patient safety and clinical outcomes globally, as it allows healthcare professionals to practice complex procedures and emergency responses in a risk-free environment. Studies outside India show that high-fidelity simulation training can significantly improve retention of clinical skills and reduce errors in high-stakes clinical situations.
By combining realistic anatomy, physiological feedback and data-driven performance tracking in one platform, SIDDH aims to elevate the quality of critical care education and better prepare the next generation of clinicians for real-world challenges.
