MBBSPG in Pediatric Intensive CareFellowship in ECMOHealthcare Simulation Expert. Full Profile
Dr. Shakila’s 35 years of Medical and healthcare experience spans across Clinical Practice, Consultation, Training, Research and Medical Simulations. She started Life Care SIM Academy in 2014 with the vision of imparting simulation-based education to health care professionals and paramedics which enhances their clinical management skills. This ultimately helps reduce the morbidity and mortality of pediatric patients.
As simulation education is becoming the norm in health care education, she has ventured with SimnxG in 2019, aiming to develop cost effective simulators to train the health care workers. Understanding the basic obstacles in health care simulation, she has decided to ideate and design low cost, hi-tech integrated simulators. Her project on Acute pediatric peritoneal dialysis virtual simulator prototype is ready to launch and she is currently working on the development of an integrated hybrid ECMO simulator.
