Breathing
Breathing on the TCCS Plus can be modified and managed using the
Respiratory Rate
control and
appropriate interventions.
Remote-controlled respiratory rate
Bilateral and independent chest excursion
Tension pneumothorax corrected by
midclavicular and anterior axillary
Support to external ventilation
Bilateral chest tube insertion
Each simulator enables needle decompression
using a 14 or 10-gauge needles applied in the mid-
clavicular or anterior axillary areas of the chest.
With proper needle insertion, pressure is relieved in the chest cavity, the “lung” re-inflates, and normal
chest functions begin. Note: there is not a noticeable expulsion of air.
When the skin becomes dimpled from multiple punctures, the skin can be repaired. See
below.
