Optional Leopold Maneuvers
NOELLE has an optional silicone
Leopold Maneuver abdominal
cover. The fetus floats freely
inside an amniotic sack which
provides tactile feedback and
resistance when performing the
Leopold Maneuvers or external
version exercise.
WARNING: Always remove the cover at the end of the palpation ex-
ercise to prevent damage to the simulator. The weight of the palpa-
tion cover can add unnecessary stress to NOELLE’s midsection if left
installed for more than two hours.
To set up the Leopold Maneuver
cover, simply secure the cover
into place with the velcro.
Perform the maneuvers on the
silicone cover.
The fetus can be set up in Noelle’s
abdominal cavity and birthed for a
scenario.
Please refer to the Normal Labor and
Delivery Section to set up NOELLE
for a birth.
Dilating Cervix
As the fetus proceeds down the
birth canal it pushes against a
simulated uterus/cervix. The
simulated cervix is designed to
permit considerable distension.
Students can measure birth descent
and cervical dilation which may be
used to plot the progress of labor.
