Difficult airway management training model with a range of difficulty levels, for beginners to experts.
Features 24 variations of patient scenario, including 1 normal case.
3 stages of mouth opening, 2 stages of neck flexibility, 2 tongue sizes and 2 positions of the vocal cords.
Upper incisors are designed to break off when excessive force is applied.
For nasal intubation: anatomically correct middle and inferior nasal concha to lean direction of the tube.
Supports training of skills including airway opening techniques (head tilt, jaw thrust); bag-valve-mask ventilation; pre-intubation airway assessment; recreating the sniffing position; pressurisation of external larynx to improve the laryngeal view intraoral / intranasal intubation; use of oropharyngeal airway (OPA); use of nasopharyngeal airway (NPA); use of laryngeal airway mask; use of video laryngoscope.
Confirmation of successful ventilation by observation of thoracic and abdominal movement (lung expanding, stomach inflating) or auscultation of the chest.
Simulates incorrect procedures including intubation in the esophagus and unilateral intubation.
