Susie® Simon Newborn Patient Care Simulator

Episiotomy and Suturing Simulator

Obstetrics simulation to improve clinical skills: The episiotomy and suture trainer provides realistic help with practicing taking care of and closing birth injuries after vaginal births. The medical personnel (midwives and doctors) should be continuously trained in diagnosing and taking care of birth injuries. With this trainer, taking care of the following birth injuries can be practiced and demonstrated:

• Episiotomy, for example:
  • Median episiotomy
  • Mediolateral episiotomy
  • Lateral episiotomy
• Vaginal tears
• Labial tears

Chester Chest™ has been an industry standard since 1986 for the teaching of central line care. The right chest area of Chester Chest™ has a 9.6Fr tunneled central catheter that is visible up to the clavicle. The Dacron cuff on this catheter is also discernable. The external jugular vein is slightly raised with an opening to attach your own triple lumen catheter and there is also an opening in the upper chest area for placement of a subclavian catheter. These optional catheters are available from VATA, or if you prefer, you can send us the catheters your institution uses and we will install them at no charge. Included with this model is a real port that makes it possible to simulate accessing the following IVAD placements: normal, “tipping”, “wandering”, or deeply placed in the left chest area. Successful access is confirmed by a blood return. Fluid can be infused and blood withdrawn from all the lines.

Crisis™ Manikin Auscultation Kit

The Life/form® Auscultation Trainer Simulator duplicates heart and lung conditions selected by the instructor by wireless remote control. The student must palpate to identify the correct auscultation sites and will hear different heart and lung sounds as the SmartScope™ is moved from site to site. The simulator duplicates human conditions as closely as modern plastics and electronic technology allows — it’s almost the real thing. Care and treatment should be the same as with a patient.
