Introduction

MegaCode Kelly is a full-body, lifelike manikin designed for the practice of
advanced, difficult and obstructed airway scenarios and IV therapy. When
used with the SimPad System; MegaCode Kelly allows cardiac
defibrillation, pacing with or without capture and variable threshold, ECG
interpretation , measurement of non-invasive blood pressure, and the
auscultation and recognition of heart, breath and abdominal sounds.

SimPad also allows the use of the pre-recorded vocal sounds,

and live voice through the use of a wireless microphone and logging

and scenario functions.

The manufacturing quality of this manikin should provide many sessions of
training when reasonable care and maintenance are practiced.

Cautions and Warnings - Latex

Cautions and Warnings

This product contains Natural Rubber latex which may cause allergic

reactions when in contact with humans.

There are electronic components mounted inside the airway head. The

following techniques should not be performed on this manikin due to the
inability to properly sanitize the airway if they are performed:

• Mouth-to-mouth/Mouth-to-mask ventilation

• Insertion of simulated vomit for suctioning

Lubricate the oral and nasal airways liberally with the lubricant provided

prior to inserting any instrument, tube or airway device into the airway.
Additionally, instruments and tubes should also be lubricated prior to use.

Do not allow the manikin's skin to come in direct contact with ink or

photocopied paper, as this can permanently stain the skin. Avoid using
colored plastic gloves when handling the manikin, as they may also cause
discoloration.

Care should be taken when palpating the pulses to not use excessive

force as this will result in no pulse being felt. Only two individual pulses
can be felt at the same time.

If a training session involves the administration of

and/or drugs into

the IV arm, empty the arm immediately following the training session.

Defibrillation

Only apply the

to a

post or zap plate which is

properly mounted on the manikin's chest.

• Do not provide more than 2 x 360J

discharges per minute as

an average over a period of time to prevent overheating.

The manikin chest must be kept dry. Special attention should be taken

when using IV Arm.

• Do not apply conductive gel or conductive

pads intended

for patient use to prevent chest skin pitting.

• Do not use cables or connectors with visible damage.
• Observe all normal safety precautions for use of

must be performed over the two

connectors only.

Electromagnetic radiation from other radio transmitters or other
electronic equipment may cause noise in the head speaker. To eliminate
this noise, move manikin away from the radiation source or turn the head
speaker volume to zero.
