Clinical Features

A 22 (or smaller) gauge needle is recommended for
decompression of the chest. Using a smaller gauge needle
increases the longevity of the chest skin and bladders.
However, a too small gauge prevents automatic detection
of the decompression event in the simulation model.
Chest Tube Insertion
Chest tube insertion can be
simulated, and exploration and
cut can be made at left or right
mid-axillary line at (4th and) 5th
intercostals space.
Circulation
Cardiac features:
− Extensive ECG library, pulses from 0-220.
− Heart sounds - for every anterior location
− ECG rhythm simulation
− 12-lead ECG display
− Pacing
− Defibrillation and cardio version using live defibrillators
Defibrillation
− With live defibrillators: energy level and waveform model is
registered by the manikin.
− The energy levels and number of shocks required for automatic
conversion are set in each simulation Patient Case.
Defibrillation Studs
Circulation features
− BP measured manually by auscultation of Korotkoff sounds
− Carotid, brachial, radial, femoral, popliteal, dorsalis pedis, and
posterior tibialis pulses synchronized with ECG
− Pulse strength variable with BP
− Pulses are synchronized with ECG when the instructor sets the
pulse strength manually
− Pulse palpation is detected and logged
CPR
− Compliant with 2000 and 2010 Guidelines
− Compressions generate palpable pulses, blood pressure wave
form, and ECG artifacts
− Realistic compression depth and resistance
− Detection of depth, release and frequency of compressions
− Real-time view of quality of CPR on the Instructor’s PC
Patient Monitor features - Circulation
− ECG (12-lead) and heart rate (HR)
− Pulse
− NBP
− ABP
− PAP
− C.O.
Patient Monitor Features - Temperatures
− TPeri
− Tblood
ABOUT THE CIRCULATION & FLUIDS TAB
The settings of the <Circulation & fluids> tab are used to control the
secretion of fluids and blood from the Manikin during simulation.
To open the <Airway / breathing> menu if it is hidden, click on the
tab name.
Circulation Fluids Settings and Configuration
The possible circulation fluids settings and details of how to configure
them are outlined below.
