    AbstractCode Red! software simulates typical cardiac emergencies with a full color interactive educational simulation. The trainee can master the basic skills of recognizing cardiac rhythms and appropriately treating abnormalities through interaction with a variety of scenarios (e.g. ventricular fibrillation, bradycardia, asystole). Older character-based computer programs are limited in their ability to assist in the training of proper cardiac arrest resuscitation. Medical Directors, residents, medical students, critical care nurses, ER staff, paramedics and many other health care professionals can benefit from the software. The software, running within the Windows 3.0 graphical environment on a 386/486 PC, demonstrates the capability of today's computers to simulate a complex task and provide a powerful training tool.
