SETUP

Changing Genitalia Modules

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

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

1 Remove the Patient Simulator’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 Patient Simulator
pelvis to the urine bladder module.

4 Place the new Genitalia Module back into the Patient Simulator’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 Patient Simulator 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.
