Assessment

Mock NBRC Exam

Full-length, timed TMC simulation in the exact NBRC format. See your real score — and where you stand — before exam day.

  • Performance breakdown by clinical area
  • Full review mode with clinical rationales
  • Benchmarked against NBRC cut scores

Clinical Simulation

Respiratory Encounters

You are called to see a patient and told only a room and a reason. Assess, decide, treat — and escalate to ventilation on the same patient if it comes to that.

  • The diagnosis is not given — you find it from your own assessment
  • Every action costs time, and the patient keeps deteriorating while you decide
  • Escalate from oxygen through HFNC and NIV to intubation without ever leaving the patient
  • Clinical debrief that names what you missed and feeds your study plan

Patient Cases

Clinical Simulation

Ventilator Case Lab

Manage one named patient to a clinical goal. Opens on the case that matches what you have actually been missing, then scores how well you get them there.

  • Picks your patient from your own weak topics — same signal as your study plan
  • Adjust FiO₂, PEEP, Vt, rate, flow, I:E ratio
  • Live waveforms: pressure, flow, and volume loops
  • 8 disease profiles — ARDS, COPD, asthma, CHF, neonatal RDS, and more

Clinical Simulation

Ventilator Simulator

No patient, no goal, no clock. Change one setting and watch what it does to the waveforms, the lungs and the trapped volume until the relationship is obvious.

  • VC-CMV, PC-CMV, SIMV and PSV on a physics engine, not lookup tables
  • Animated lungs and auto-PEEP you can watch build breath by breath
  • Alarms fire from the physiology — Learn mode explains them, Challenge mode makes you diagnose them
  • 9 conditions to load, including ARDS, COPD, asthma and CO poisoning
Launch
Randomized

Troubleshooting

Alarm Trainer

Randomized alarm scenarios you'd face in a real ICU. Troubleshoot under time pressure with step-by-step protocols and scoring.

  • High pressure, auto-PEEP, apnea, disconnect
  • Timed response — simulates real clinical pressure
  • Rationale-driven troubleshooting for every alarm

AI Simulation

AI Clinical Shift

The AI plays charge RT, ICU attending, and bedside nurse. You receive real pages, make real decisions, and earn a full clinical performance score with debrief.

  • AI-generated pages with full clinical context
  • Multi-role: charge RT, attending, bedside nurse
  • Performance score + clinical debrief

Why simulation beats passive review

Active Beats Passive

You retain roughly 10% of what you read. You retain over 75% of what you practice. Every simulator requires a real decision under pressure.

Real Physics

The ventilator simulator uses actual respiratory mechanics — not pre-scripted animations. Change PEEP. Watch compliance shift. Real cause, real effect.

Clinical Pressure

Alarm Trainer and AI Clinical Shift recreate the time pressure of a real shift — because the NBRC tests whether you can apply knowledge fast, not just recall it.
