Description
This product is a non-functional, realistic skin for the left arm of the manikin. The "M" in the product code (LF04323M) stands for "Medium Tone," which means this skin is a darker color than the standard "light" tone model. It is designed to replace the original skin after it becomes worn out from repeated use in training scenarios.
Key Features and Use
Diversity in Training: The primary purpose of the medium skin tone option is to provide a more inclusive and representative training environment. By using manikins with different skin tones, healthcare students can learn to identify and assess a wider range of clinical signs, as some conditions (like rashes, cyanosis, or jaundice) may present differently on various skin types.
Replacement Part: This is a crucial accessory for extending the life of a TERi manikin. Over time, the soft silicone skin can wear out from repeated use in training scenarios, such as bathing, injections, or wound care. Replacing the skin maintains the manikin's realistic appearance and tactile feel.
Realistic Training: The skin allows students to practice hands-on procedures, including:
Intramuscular (IM) and Subcutaneous Injections: The left arm often has designated sites for injections. The replacement skin ensures that this functionality remains realistic.
Patient Handling: The realistic feel of the skin is important for practicing proper patient handling, transfers, and providing general care like bathing and dressing.
Wound Care and Assessment: The manikin's skin is designed to have features like ulcers or moles, allowing for the practice of wound care and the recognition of various dermatological conditions.
