SETUP
Changing Genitalia Modules
The SimMan Essential is shipped with a neutral genitalia module
as its default. The module can be exchanged for a male or female
genitalia module with urine catheter to simulate urine flow and
catheterization.
Note: The Patient Simulator legs do not need to be removed
before the genitalia module can be replaced.
1 Remove the Patient Simulator’s genitalia module 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.
Changing the Upper Dentures
The SimMan Essential 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 places.
Changing the Irises
The irises can be changed to simulate different clinical states. The
irises are secured by magnets in the eye socket. To change the irises
use the especially adapted suction wand.
Before changing the irises during a simulation, stop the blinking
function in LLEAP.
1 Moisten the suction cup before performing this procedure.
2 Pull and roll the iris up and down towards the Patient Simulator’s
mouth using a rolling motion.
3 Place the iris in the eye kit and select another from the kit.
4 Insert the lower part of the iris into the socket until it connects
with the magnet below. Repeat this for the other eye.
