Setup for Simulation

Connecting the Blood Pressure Cuff

The manikin is delivered with a specially adjusted blood pressure
cuff. Connect the tube to the white BP connector at the side of the
manikin before use.

Calibrating the Blood Pressure Cuff

1 Select <Tools> <Maintenance> and choose <Calibrate BP...>

2 Follow the onscreen wizard instructions to perform the calibration.

Connecting the SpO

2

Probe

The SimMan 3G SpO

2

probe is

made up of a light diode and
light sensor. When the beam
between the diode and sensor
is broken, the Patient Monitor
Application registers that the
SpO

2

probe is connected.

1 Connect the probe’s USB

plug to the Patient Monitor
PC.

2 The probe can be placed on any suitable area on the manikin,

Ensure that the probe is always firmly fixed in position.

Changing Genitalia Modules

The SimMan 3G is shipped with a neutral genitalia pad as default. The
pad can be exchanged for a male or female genitalia pad with urine
catheter to simulate urine flow and catheterization.

Note: The manikin legs do not need to be removed before the
genitalia pad can be replaced.

1 Remove the manikin’s genitalia pad by gripping the pad at the top

and pulling forward and down.

2 Disconnect any tubes or cables.

3 Connect the new genitalia module’s urine tube and the

catheterization sensor cable from inside the manikin pelvis to the
urine bladder module.

4 Place the new genitalia module back into the manikin’s pelvis.

Inserting Urine Catheter

Always use a water based lubricant liberally when inserting a urine
catheter.

Use the following catheter sizes:
Female genitalia – Foley 14Ch and Lofric 16Ch
Male genitalia – Foley 16Ch and Lofric 16Ch

Changing the Upper Dentures

The SimMan3G manikin comes with a set of soft upper teeth as
default. The soft set may be replaced with a hard set of teeth.

1 Remove the teeth from the mouth.

2 Align the new set of teeth with the gums and push them back

until the teeth engage and lock onto the gums.

3 Ensure that the new set of teeth is properly aligned with the gums

before pushing them into place.
