Performing Simulations
Introduction to Simulations
SimMom is capable of performing a variety of simulations based on
the positioning of the manikin and the modules attached to it. This
section includes the following:
– Airway Management
– Setting Up ECG Snaps/Defibrillation Connectors
– Connecting Blood Pressure Cuff
– Preparing IV Simulations and Cleaning IV Arm
– Preparing Baby for Delivery and Attaching Amniotic Bag
– Birthing Positions
– Deliveries
– Modules
– Catheter Installation
– Filling Blood and Urine Reservoirs
– Cleaning Blood and Urine Reservoir
– Performing Hybrid Simulations
– Using the Bed Strap
Airway Management
Note: It is recommended that a 7.5 endotracheal tube, #4
LMA, Large Adult or Trainer Combitube, and a KING LT – #4
be used during simulation.
A liberal amount of airway lubricant or liquid soap should be
applied inside the pharynx, nostrils, and all intubation areas prior to
performing intubation procedures.
Setting Up ECG Snaps/Defibrillation Connectors
For rhythm monitoring; the manikin is installed with 4 ECG Stud
connectors.
Note: Do not begin training until the manikin is connected to
the VitalSim Control Unit via the 37 pin connector cable exiting
the right side of the manikin’s body.
Installing Defibrillator Adapter Plates
The manikin torso is fitted with two stud connectors for use with a
conventional defibrillator (defibrillator not included).
Defibrillation Studs
To prepare the manikin for defibrillation using paddles:
1. Unscrew and remove defibrillation studs.
2. Screw adapter plates into post sockets located on apex and
sternum of manikin.
Note: Place paddles firmly against zap plates to read rhythm
on a monitor.
3. For hands free defibrillation, attach adhesive pads to adapter
plates. For manual defibrillation, place defibrillator paddles firmly
against adapter plates.
Caution: The manikin must not be in contact with electrically
conductive surfaces or objects during defibrillation.
Warnings:
– Read and follow all safety and operation instructions provided
with your defibrillator and associated equipment.
– The trainer can be shocked with actual voltage and current
during defibrillation. Observe all precautions and safety
measures during defibrillation and pacing phases of training.
Failure to follow safety measures could result in injury or death
to operators, students, and/or onlookers.
– Only perform defibrillation on the defibrillator connectors.
– Do not press too hard over the defibrillator adapters as this may
cause arcing and pitting.
– Do not defibrillate manikin without the torso skin in place.
− Do not provide more than 2 x 360 J defibrillator discharges
per minute. After 30 minutes, cease all shocking for at least 15
minutes before starting a new sequence.
Connecting Blood Pressure Cuff
SimMom is delivered with a customized blood pressure cuff. It attaches
to the blood pressure arm (right arm), which, when connected to
VitalSim, can be used to auscultate and palpate blood pressure.
