Respiratory System
The simulator represents a realistic Respiratory System to achieve an extremely accurate simulation
of respiration. This system is tightly integrated with the Cardiovascular System.See the
Appendix A -
Recommended Clinical Supplies
section of this user guide for information associated with the
Respiratory System features of the simulator.
Base Respiratory System Features
Upper airway sounds allow for auscultation of normal and abnormal lung sounds on the anterior
torso.
Spontaneous and mechanical modes of ventilation are supported.
Symmetric lung ventilation is supported in response to manual bag-valve-mask (BVM) ventilation
via face mask, endotracheal tube or tracheostomy tube.
The simulated patient generates both normal and abnormal breath sounds, bilateral and
unilateral, which are appropriately synchronized with the respective phases of respiration. Breath
sounds are audible over the apex of each lung with the use of standard stethoscope and
StethoSym.
In the case of esophageal intubation, breath sounds, and chest excursion output are automatically
absent, but the stomach distends with positive pressure ventilation attempts.
Manual bag-valve-mask (BVM) ventilation demonstrates chest rise and fall.
Allows for retrograde and fiberoptic intubation.
Allows for transtracheal jet ventilation.
Allows for right main stem intubation with detection.
Nasal packing can be performed on both nares, utilizing ribbon gauze, nasal packs or tampons.
Seesaw respiratory patterns of breathing are demonstrated on the manikin.
Direct laryngoscopy as well as oral and nasal tracheal intubation can be performed.
The airway accommodates the use of standard clinical devices such as nasopharyngeal and
oropharyngeal airways, nasal cannula, nasal packing, endotracheal tube placement, and
tracheostomy tube placement.
