PediaSIM represents the physiology of a 6-Year old Male weighing approximately 20Kilos. PediaSIM has an intubatable head and the mannequin is linked to software driven pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic models. Responses are real-time and are displayed onto a simulated monitor. Physical responses like a weak pulse and dilated pupils are transmitted into the mannequin. The PediaSIM capabilities are very similar to the Human Patient Simulator but for its trauma features and interchangeable gentelia. Voice over sessions can also be facilitated through a speaker inside the mannequin's head. Features include,

  • Reactive eyes, dilating pupils
  • Intubatable airway
  • Voice through airway speaker
  • Independent chest excursion
  • Chest compression
  • ECG, Defibrillation, Pacing
  • Interosseus infusion (Right leg only)
  • Carotid pulse
  • Bilateral pulses at Brachial, Radial, Femoral and Pedal Locations
  • Choice of heart and breath sounds
