Cardiac Pacing
A standard transthoracic cardiac pacemaker can be connected to the simulator using the anterior
defibrillation connection. The software automatically detects and responds to pacing signals (from 20
to 200 mA, in increments of 10).
Three parameters can be used to simulate pacing within the software:
• Pacing Capture Threshold - determines the minimum pacing current
necessary to pace the heart.
• Pacing Current - simulates a specific amount of current discharged by an
external cardiac pacemaker.
• Pacing Rate - determines the cardiac rate when the Pacing Current is at or
above the Pacing Capture Threshold
All three parameters are located on the Cardiovascular view.
Fluids
Lucina is capable of vaginal bleeding, IV fluid administration and urine output.
IMPORTANT: Use only clear distilled water, distilled water tinted with food coloring, or distilled water
mixed with white vinegar (50/50) inside the mannequin. Administration of any other type of fluid is
NOT supported and may damage the system.
Bleeding and blood administration are controlled from the Fluids view in Müse. To access the Fluids
view, from the
Run screen, click the blood droplet on the human form. The Fluids parameters appear.
