Key Features
Realistic Anomaly Replica: The prosthetic is a three-dimensional replica of a myelomeningocele, which is a congenital defect in which the spinal cord of the baby is not fully formed. It is made from a lifelike, durable material that mimics the feel and appearance of human tissue. The intricate detailing of the wound, including the sac that protrudes from the vertebral column, adds to the realism.
Non-Bleeding Design: This model is typically non-bleeding, making it suitable for various training environments without the added complexity of a fluid system. This allows for focused training on the visual and tactile assessment of the injury.
Easy Application: The prosthetic can be easily attached to a newborn manikin's back using an adhesive. It can be further enhanced with makeup to create a complete and realistic condition.
Durable and Reusable: The prosthetic is made from a durable material that is designed to withstand repeated use in a medical training environment.
Anatomical Accuracy: The prosthetic is designed to fit the contours of a newborn's back, ensuring that the anomaly appears anatomically correct.
Uses
The Simulaids Myelomeningocele Wound is used in a wide range of emergency training settings to:
Enhance Training Realism: It is an ideal tool for creating high-fidelity scenarios that prepare students and professionals for the visual and tactile assessment of a patient's condition.
Train in Neonatal Care: The prosthetic is essential for training nurses and other healthcare professionals in protocols for neonatal care, including wound assessment, documentation, and care.
Develop Assessment Skills: By creating a realistic anomaly, the prosthetic challenges students to perform thorough patient assessments and prioritize care based on the severity of the wounds.
Facilitate Clinical Simulations: The prosthetic can be used to set up complex clinical simulations, helping healthcare teams improve communication, coordination, and rapid decision-making in a high-stakes environment.
Support Hands-on Learning: The realistic look and feel of the wound ensure that students get accurate, hands-on experience, which is crucial for building confidence and competency in performing life-saving interventions.
