Using the Resusci Manikin Face on an individual basis
Each student in the class should install and remove his or her
manikin face.
Using the same Resusci Manikin Face
for all students
If several students are using the same manikin face,
thorough disinfection between students is required.
Laerdal High Level Manikin Disinfectant
Laerdal High Level Manikin Disinfectant (Virkon) Rapid Pack
make disinfection practical. Fill the 100ml bottle with luke
warm water, open sachet and add Virkon to water. Leave for
2 minutes. Push cap firmly onto the bottle until it clicks.
Shake bottle gently to ensure Virkon is fully dissolved.
Spray manikin surface (mouth and nose area) until fully
wetted (6-8 sprays). Do not allow Virkon to run off surfaces.
Leave for 30 seconds and wipe thoroughly with a disposable
cloth until dry. Ventilation practice may now continue.
Note:
Depending on local policies you may prefer to use
Resusci Manikin Wipes (see below) for cleaning or a freshly
prepared sodium hypochlorite solution, but other procedures
must then be followed.
To use Manikin Wipes
Tear foil packet open. Take out and
unfold wipe. Rub manikin's mouth and
nose vigorously. Wrap wipe snugly over
mouth and nose.
Let stay in place for 30 sec.
Dry manikin's face with a
clean paper towel or similar.
Ventilation practice may now
continue.
Manikin Face Shields
(optional)
Proper disinfection of manikin's face pro-
vides proper hygienic conditions during
training. However, for aesthetic reasons
students may feel more comfortable
having a clean barrier between own lips
and surfaces touched by another
person's lips. The Manikin Face Shields
are designed to allow inexpensive
barrier protection and to train the use
of Laerdal Patient Face Shields made
for use in real cases.
To use
Disinfect as instructed above. Pull a
shield out of the roll and tear off at
perforation. Place shield over manikin's
face as illustrated.
Hold shield in place and airway open,
as illustrated. Place your lips over the
ventilation opening, pinch the nose,
and ventilate. Discard shield after each
practice session.

We recommend you provide an individual Manikin Face to each student. This eliminates the need for decontami-
nation between students. All students can also use one face permanently installed on the manikin and disinfect the
face between each student's use.
Turn manikin face inside out
and push face coupling into
airway valve. Push face
coupling into airway connector
until fully seated.
Fasten manikin face to
retainers at each ear.
Detach manikin face from
retainers at each ear.
