Human Patient SimulatorThe Human Patient Simulator is a life size intubatable mannequin linked to a computer through a host of electro-mechanical equipment. This integration of electro-mechanics into the mannequin makes the users experience very realistic.

Computerized mathematical models of human physiology and a feedback based pharmacokinetics system assist the mannequin in responding in realtime to all user's interventions. The human patient simulator can be connected to a full suite of anesthesia machines and appropriate scenarios can be programmed. Separate event, drug and physiologic logs are auto-recorded during usage and can be viewed offline. Features include,

  • Reactive eyes, dilating pupils
  • Intubatable airway
  • Voice through airway speaker
  • Independent chest excursion
  • Simulated pneumothorax and chest tube placement
  • CPR Chest compression can be administered
  • ECG, Defibrillation, Pacing
  • Interosseus infusion (Right leg only)
  • Carotid pulse
  • Bilateral pulses at Brachial, Radial, Femoral and Pedal Locations
