Preparation
Setting the Patient Conditions
[Patient receiving tube feeding]
Placing a feeding tube in nasal or oral route to simulate a patient with tube feeding.
[Patient with tracheostomy]
Place the cannula to the tracheostomy opening to simulate a patient with tracheostomy ventilation.
1. Remove the plug for the tracheostomy opening. Lubricate the tube and the inside of trachea.
* Since the tracheostomy opening is already made, at times some types or sizes of cannula may not fit well.
Tracheostomy Tube II (internal diameter 8.0mm, external diameter11.0mm) is available as an optional part.
Caution
Be sure to use the authentic Kyoto Kagaku
lubricant for training, which is available as an
optional part. Do not use gel type lubricant as
its substance dries and remain in the manikin.
Sometimes, the cap of the
Tracheostomy Tube II may come
off due to lubrication and left in
the airway. When it occurs wipe
off the lubricant and/or water
both from the cap and inside of
the tip of the cannula and then
replace the cap.
