This surgical simulator materials database is a technical resource to aid the construction of surgical simulators with a focus on the various fidelity types needed to learn and practice a surgical procedure, including visual, tactile, auditory, consequence, etc. This resource is an ongoing collaborative effort to document and categorize the development of surgical simulators, especially for use in low-cost settings. The database will provide insight for simulator developers regarding material fidelity in clinical settings.
