Description

Key Features

  • Realistic Anatomy and Size: The manikin is made from a durable, lifelike material and is sized to accurately represent an obese individual. This realistic size and weight provide a more authentic training experience, forcing trainees to adapt their technique.

  • Specialized Choking Mechanism: A key feature is the manikin's specialized choking mechanism. When a simulated foreign object (included with the manikin) is placed in the airway, it creates a realistic obstruction. When the correct choking rescue procedure is performed, the object is ejected, providing immediate visual confirmation of a successful maneuver.

  • Unique Challenges of Obesity: The manikin's design, which includes a large abdomen, forces trainees to learn and practice the modified choking rescue procedure for obese individuals, which often involves using chest thrusts instead of abdominal thrusts.

  • Back Blows and Chest Thrusts: The manikin is designed to respond to both back blows and chest thrusts, allowing for a complete training experience that follows established first aid protocols for this specific patient population.

  • Hygienic Design: The manikin features a disposable lung/airway system, which allows for multiple students to practice in a sanitary manner. A carry bag is also included for easy transport and storage.


Uses

  • First Aid and CPR Training: This manikin is an essential tool for advanced first aid and CPR courses, where it is used to train a variety of audiences, including first responders and healthcare professionals.

  • Emergency Medical Education: It is used in emergency medical services (EMS) training programs to teach paramedics and EMTs how to manage a choking emergency in an obese person effectively, a skill that requires specific adaptations.

  • Skill Development and Confidence Building: It provides a safe and effective way for trainees to develop the manual dexterity and confidence required to perform a choking rescue maneuver in a real-life emergency, especially in a situation that presents unique physical challenges.
