Human Patient Simulator Adult - HPS 010

Anesthesia and Scavenging

• Ability to administer anesthetic agents and medical gases
• Lungs consume oxygen and produce carbon dioxide
• Uptake and distribution of nitrous oxide and volatile anesthetics
• Direct gas exchange within the lungs
• Mechanical ventilation fully supported with automatic responses to CPAP, PSV, PEEP, SIMV, assist control modes and weaning protocols
• Simulator will flow trigger or pressure trigger a ventilator to cycle
• Simulator can be configured to fight the ventilator
• Expired carbon dioxide automatically based on patient condition and interventions
• Thumb twitch with standard Peripheral Nerve Stimulator based on neuromuscular agent response

Neurological

• Reactive pupils and blinking eyes
• Automatic changes based on inadequate respiratory and cardiovascular conditions
• Convulsions

Airway

• Head tilt/chin lift
• Tongue swelling, pharyngeal obstruction, laryngospasm and bronchospasm
• Intubation: orotracheal, nasotracheal, ET tubes, retrograde, fiber optic, right mainstem
• Gastric distention with esophageal intubation 
• Supports ET tube and other airway adjunct placement
• Bag-valve-mask ventilation
• Surgical cricothyrotomy
• Needle cricothyrotomy
• Variable airway resistance and compliance
• Bilateral and unilateral bronchial occlusion
• Supports real capnography

Breathing

• Bilateral and unilateral chest rise and fall
• Measures the presence or absence of carbon dioxide exhalation
• Spontaneous breathing
• Bilateral chest tube insertion with fluid output and automatic resolution of physiology
• Bilateral needle decompression with automatic resolution of physiology
• Variable lung and chest compliance
• Pulse oximetry correlates dynamically to ventilation, oxygenation and perfusion

Cardiac

• Defibrillation and cardioversion using live defibrillators, energy is automatically quantified and logged
• Pacing (use of hands-free pads), current is automatically quantified and logged
• 12-lead dynamic ECG display
• Simulated introduction and progressive insertion of pulmonary artery catheter displayed on patient monitor with appropriate waveforms

Articulation

• Range of motion in the wrists, elbows, knees and ankles

Circulation

• Blood pressure measurement (left arm) by auscultation and palpation
• Bilateral carotid, brachial, radial, femoral, popliteal, and dorsalis pedis pulses

Urological

• Urine output
• Urinary catherization
• Interchangeable genitalia

Vascular Access

• IV cannulation with flashback supported in right arm including the brachial, cephalic, basilic, and antecubital veins
• Right deltoid intramuscular injection site available
• Right jugular and left femoral IV lines support infusions

CPR

• Correct hand placement, depth, and rate of compressions are reflected in physiological feedback rather than virtual target on instructor’s workstation
• Adequate chest compressions result in simulated circulation, cardiac output, central and peripheral blood pressures, carbon dioxide return

Pharmacology System

• Pharmacology system models automatically calculate the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics for more than 50 intravenous and inhaled medications
• All patient responses to drugs are automatic, dose dependent and follow appropriate time course 

Enhanced Drug Recognition System

• Features barcode technology and extensive drug library
• Standard syringes with barcoded labels including drug name and concentration
• Barcode technology automatically identifies the drug, concentration and dose requiring no interaction form the instructor

Trauma

• Diagnostic peritoneal lavage with fluid return
• Pericardiocentesis with fluid withdrawal linked to physiology
• Eyes, ears and mouth secretions

Sounds

• Pre-recorded sounds and voices
• Customized sounds and voices via the provided wireless microphone
