Key Features
Software Cartridge: This product is a small, portable software module that plugs into a compatible simulator unit, such as the Mini Sounds TUTOR. The product code "WPL5098" is associated with the sound menu, while the "Ms2M-157" is the specific sound content designation.
Realistic Infant Sounds: The module contains a library of pre-recorded, authentic heart and breath sounds from an actual infant. This allows students to listen to and learn to identify a variety of normal and abnormal sounds that are specific to a pediatric patient.
Interactive Simulation: When used with the main simulator unit, this menu allows an instructor to select and play specific infant heart or breath sounds. A connected electronic stethoscope is then used by the student to auscultate the sounds on a manikin or directly from an external sounder.
Anatomical Accuracy: The sounds are played through a sounder that can be placed on a manikin at the correct anatomical location, ensuring students learn proper stethoscope placement and technique for pediatric auscultation.
Targeted Training: The product's focus on infant sounds makes it a specialized training tool, allowing instructors to conduct dedicated pediatric training sessions.
Scalability: The system is designed to allow multiple students to auscultate the same sound simultaneously, making it suitable for group training sessions in a classroom or lab.
Key Uses
Pediatric Auscultation Training: The primary use is in medical, nursing, and EMT schools to teach students how to accurately auscultate and identify sounds in a pediatric patient. This is a critical skill, as the anatomy and sounds of an infant differ from an adult.
Diagnostic Skills: The product allows students to practice their diagnostic reasoning skills by listening to the sounds and correlating them with potential pediatric conditions, such as a heart murmur or a specific respiratory issue.
Standardized Learning: By using a standardized set of sounds, the simulator ensures that all students receive a consistent training experience, which is crucial for consistent and objective evaluation.
Scenario-Based Education: An instructor can use this menu to create a scenario where a simulated infant has a specific set of symptoms, and the student must use auscultation to help make a diagnosis.
