Si(mulation) Lab

Our mission at SiLab (Simulation Lab) is to empower medical teams to enhance medical resuscitation care, encompassing conditions such as cardiac arrest (code blue) and neurovascular resuscitation, through the sharing and implementation of best practices and protocols. We strive to reduce the door-to-intervention time, whether that's how efficiently a code is run for medical resuscitations, and in the context of stroke, metrics such as door-to-needle time and door-to-groin puncture time.

Sharing best practices and protocols for acute resuscitation care is a key factor in improving the quality of care at individual medical centers. By sharing and comparing protocols, centers can identify and implement proven strategies to reduce response times, which can result in improved patient outcomes.

SiLab, as an educational website dedicated to sharing information and resources on resuscitation care, can play a critical role in promoting collaboration and knowledge-sharing among healthcare providers. There is no duty-of-care, everything on this website is for educational purposes only and not a replacement for expert advice and/or expert medical care.

Through the sharing of information and resources, our goal at SiLab is to facilitate continuous improvement in resuscitation care, ultimately leading to better patient outcomes and a reduction in the devastating impact of conditions requiring urgent medical resuscitation.

SiLab is a resuscitation-focused resource website by Dr. Houman Khosravani. The site started June 2023, check frequently for updates.
