FEATURES
Circulation
Cardiac Features
− Extensive ECG library, pulses from 0-220.
− Heart sounds - for every anterior location
− ECG rhythm monitoring (4-connector, 3-lead ECG)
− 12-lead ECG display
− Pacing
− Defibrillation and cardio version using live defibrillators
Defibrillation
− With live defibrillators; energy level and waveform model is
registered by the Patient Simulator.
− The energy levels and number of shocks required for automatic
conversion are set in each simulation Patient Case.
Defibrillation Studs 3-Lead ECG Studs
Circulation features
− BP measured manually by auscultation of Korotkoff sounds
− Carotid, brachial, radial, femoral, dorsalis pedis, and posterior
tibialis pulses synchronized with ECG
− Pulse strength variable with BP
− Pulses are synchronized with ECG when the instructor sets the
pulse strength manually
− Pulse palpation is detected and logged
CPR
− Compliant with 2005 and 2010 Guidelines
− Compressions generate palpable pulses, blood pressure wave
form, and ECG artifacts
− Realistic compression depth and resistance
− Detection of depth, release and frequency of compressions
− Real-time view of Quality of CPR on the Instructor’s PC
Warning: Do not use automated chest compression machines on
the Patient Simulator.
