Airway Head
1.
Head Tilt and Chin lift:
Head tilt and chin lift can be performed
on the head.
2. Jaw Thrust:
The jaw thrust maneuver can be performed on
the head.
3. Ventilation
The airway is designed to accept a broad range of airway
management devices. Some examples are:
- Oral and Nasal airways (OPA and NPA)
- Bag-Valve-Mask ventilation (BVM)
- Combitube
- Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA)
- Laryngeal Tube Airway (LTA)
Lubricate
the oral and nasal airways liberally with the lubricant
provided prior to inserting any instrument or tube into the
airway. Additionally, instruments and tubes should also be
lubricated prior to use.
Note:
There are electronic components mounted inside the head.
The following techniques should not be performed on this manikin
due to the inability to properly sanitize the airway if they are
performed:
- Mouth-to-mouth/Mouth-to-mask ventilation
- Insertion of simulated vomit for suctioning
4. Pupils:
The manikin is delivered with a set of eyes containing
normal pupils mounted in the head. A separate case contains
3 sets of plastic eye inserts (normal, constricted and dilated
pupils) for use in simulating other conditions.
5. Cricoid Cartilage:
A realistic cricoid cartilage is attached to the
airway underneath the face skin allowing the technique of cricoid
pressure to be performed.
6. Carotid pulses:
When the manikin is “On” palpable carotid
pulses, synchronous to the simulated ECG, are generated.
Note:
Care should be taken when palpating the carotid pulse to not
use excessive force as this will result in no pulse being felt.
7. Lung:
The manikin is equipped with one disposable lung that
attaches to the airway.
