This app is a simulator for education and training only. It is not a medical device and must not be used for patient monitoring, diagnosis or treatment.
Code Blue Monitor is a patient monitor and defibrillator simulator built for NCLS® (an emergency response course for nurses in Japan) and AHA ACLS training. The iPad sits in front of the learners as the monitor; the iPhone is the instructor's remote. Change the rhythm and vital signs from your hand, and the monitor changes — so learners notice the deterioration themselves instead of being told "the blood pressure is 80."
■ FREE VERSION
Four rhythms (sinus rhythm, VF, pulseless VT, asystole), defibrillation (up to 2 shocks per scenario), vital sign control and the built-in patient chart. The two-device setup with the iPhone remote is fully available in the free version.
■ FULL VERSION (one-time in-app purchase)
- 35 ECG rhythms (every AV block, ST elevation, hyperkalemia, paced rhythm and more)
- Unlimited shocks / transcutaneous pacing
- 12-lead ECG with automated interpretation (selectable infarct location)
- 26 blood gas cases (linked to scenario presets)
- 4 chest X-rays, 3 echo clips, and your own images
- 28 patient-chart cases (shared with our SIM-Chart simulated EHR; advance the phase and records and results arrive step by step)
- 6 breath sounds and 6 heart sounds (heart sounds follow the ECG beats)
- 6 pupil findings with a working light reflex
- Ambient sounds (siren, in-hospital emergency call, Code Blue announcement)
- Arterial line and EtCO₂
- Alarm limits, scenario presets, event log export
■ TWO DEVICES, NO NETWORK
The iPad (monitor) and iPhone (remote) connect directly to each other. No Wi-Fi router, no internet, no account. Enter the same 4-digit room code on both and you are ready. Everything also works on a single device.
■ FOR INSTITUTIONS
"Code Blue Monitor Pro" is a paid edition with every feature included, available for volume purchase through Apple School Manager and Apple Business Manager.

Ratings & Reviews
This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
■ New
・28 patient-chart cases (shared with our SIM-Chart simulated EHR). Advance the phase and learners receive the records and results up to that point.
・Add your own images to the imaging list — your hospital's X-rays or self-made results, with findings.
・Alarm limits can now be set. Tap a value tile to open the settings. Respiratory-rate alarm added.
・Scenario presets now also set a matching blood gas (26 cases).
・A pulse on/off toggle on the bottom bar of the remote. Palpating when there is no pulse now shows a notice.
・During chest compressions a compression-generated pulse can now be felt even in pulseless rhythms (it sounds different from a native pulse).
■ Improvements
・Larger monitor area and defibrillator dial in the learner view.
・EtCO₂ and arterial pressure can be set during cardiac arrest; if left alone they show 6 mmHg and 62/16 mmHg during CPR.
・S1 and S2 heart sounds are easier to tell apart.
・Larger text in the control panel and exam screens.
・Fixed remaining Japanese text in the English interface.
■ Fixes
・Fixed version 1.92 showing an outdated interface on some devices. We apologise for the inconvenience.
・Fixed the top buttons being hidden behind the status bar when using an iPhone as the monitor in portrait.
・Fixed the NIBP "Measure" button going off-screen on an iPad in portrait.
・Fixed some leads appearing nearly flat on the 12-lead during VF and torsades.
・Fixed the 12-lead automated interpretation not showing findings for the shark-fin ST elevation rhythm.
