Trauma Center ( Japanese カ ド ゥ ケ ウ ス , Kadukeusu , Eng . " Caduceus ") is a video game series by the Japanese game developer Atlus .
In simulated operations, the player usually has to treat various accidental injuries or remove tumors under time pressure. These operations are performed using the stylus (Nintendo DS) or the Wii wireless motion control (Nintendo Wii). For example, you can cut with a scalpel , remove splinters with tweezers, apply syringes or sew wounds .
A peculiarity in these simulations is the supernatural ability of the main character, called the "healing hand". This ability enables him to slow down time and thereby master even the most complicated operations.

A virus called stigma was accidentally discovered during research by Professor Wilkens and Dr. Create Vaughn. Since Professor Wilkens wants to profit from this research, they part ways. The virus gets into the hands of the criminal organization "Kidman Family".
Since this part was developed as a separate part for the Wii console, there are some new features. The 16: 9 format and progressive scan are supported. Furthermore, the conversations during the operation are not available in text form, but rather through voice output. The player can perform the operations either alone or in cooperative mode together with a second player. The rankings can be published using the online function.
