Description
The Nasco 1108 medical product is the Life/form® Infant Intraosseous Infusion Simulator. This is a highly specialized training aid designed to teach and practice intraosseous (IO) infusion procedures on an infant.
Key Features
Realistic Infant Leg Model: The simulator accurately represents the leg of an infant, providing palpable landmarks such as the tibia and tibial tuberosity. This realism is crucial for trainees to correctly identify the anatomical location for the procedure.
Intraosseous Infusion Simulation: The model is specifically designed to be used with various IO infusion devices. It allows for the full procedure, including needle insertion, proper depth, and confirmation of placement.
Fluid Capable: The simulator has a pressurized system that allows for the aspiration of fluid, providing a realistic "blood return" that confirms successful needle placement in the bone marrow cavity.
Replaceable Components: The model is built for long-term use and comes with replaceable bone inserts and skin. This extends the life of the simulator, making it a cost-effective training solution.
Durable and Reusable: The entire simulator is constructed from high-quality, durable materials that can withstand repeated training sessions, including multiple needle punctures.
Uses
Emergency Medical Training: It is an essential tool for training paramedics, emergency medical technicians (EMTs), nurses, and other healthcare professionals who may need to perform IO infusions in a critical care setting.
Pediatric Resuscitation: The model is used to teach and practice IO access in pediatric resuscitation programs (PALS - Pediatric Advanced Life Support), as IO is a primary route for drug and fluid administration in infants when traditional IV access is difficult or impossible.
Skill Development and Competency Assessment: It allows trainees to develop the necessary motor skills and confidence to perform the procedure correctly and safely. It is also used by instructors to assess a trainee's competency before they perform the procedure on a live patient.
Simulation-Based Education: It provides a safe, sterile, and controlled environment for students to learn a critical and difficult skill without any risk to a patient.
