Key Features
Standalone Simulator: This product is the physical simulator itself, excluding the monitor and integrated software found in the complete system. This makes it a more cost-effective option for trainers who may already own a compatible display or prefer a more basic setup.
Targeted Training: The PKSNM is specifically designed for PICC line insertion. It replicates the anatomical structures necessary to perform this procedure, which is a common but complex skill in nursing and medical practice.
Realistic Vascular System: The simulator features a lifelike vascular system that includes the veins used for PICC line insertion, such as the basilic and cephalic veins. It provides a realistic feel upon needle puncture and a simulated blood flashback to confirm successful venous access.
Durability: The model is made with durable, self-sealing tissues and veins that can withstand multiple cannulations and insertions, making it ideal for repeated use in a training environment.
Ultrasound Compatibility: This simulator is ultrasound-compatible. Trainees can use real ultrasound equipment to visualize the veins and guide the PICC line insertion, which is the modern standard of care.
Uses
PICC Line Insertion Training: The primary use is to teach and practice the complete PICC line insertion procedure, from gaining venous access to threading the catheter.
Skill Development: It allows for repetitive, hands-on practice, which is crucial for trainees to develop the dexterity, confidence, and muscle memory needed to perform this procedure on live patients.
Cost-Effective Training: The "No Monitor" version is a great option for training facilities or individual instructors who need a high-quality simulator but want to save money on the accompanying digital components, especially if they have multiple students who will practice on the same manikin.
Medical and Nursing Education: It is an essential tool in medical and nursing school curricula, particularly in programs that train students for critical care, infusion therapy, and other specialties that require PICC line management.
