When the Airway Disappears, Train Before It Happens in Real Life

The Decent Simulators Angioedema Difficult Airway Module is a high-fidelity scenario insert that transforms the Airway Management Task Trainer V2 into one of the most clinically challenging airway scenarios a provider will ever face, a severely swollen tongue and surrounding tissues that compress, distort, and obstruct every standard access point. Designed to replicate the airway challenges caused by severe swelling of the tongue and surrounding tissues, it creates a realistic scenario for practicing fibre-optic intubation, alternative airway techniques, and patient positioning strategies. This module delivers scenario variety that would otherwise require an entirely separate manikin. Order yours today.

Angioedema Doesn't Wait, Neither Should Your Training Program

Severe angioedema is a time-critical emergency that demands immediate, confident decision-making from clinicians who have seen this kind of airway before. The angioedema module creates exactly that exposure in a zero-risk environment. It encourages learners to adapt their technique, manage limited visibility, and work within restricted access all while using the same head and body of the standard V2 model. This means programs don't need to budget for a separate difficult airway manikin to run angioedema scenarios, one V2 trainer becomes a multi-scenario platform the moment this module is added. For simulation educators designing curriculum around rare but high-stakes presentations, the ability to flip between normal and angioedema airways in seconds is a genuine instructional advantage.

One Module. A Scenario That Separates the Prepared from the Unprepared.

Difficult airway management is the skill gap most providers don't know they have, until a real patient's airway disappears in front of them. This module puts that scenario on the training schedule before it appears in the field.

• Clinically accurate angioedema presentation: Massive tongue and soft tissue swelling narrows and distorts the airway geometry, forcing learners to abandon standard laryngoscopy assumptions and adapt in real time, exactly what a genuine angioedema emergency demands.
• Forces technique diversification: The restricted anatomy specifically challenges fibre-optic intubation skills, video laryngoscopy positioning, and alternative airway decision trees, building the clinical flexibility that standard airway trainers can't develop alone.
• Instant scenario switching: Swaps in seconds with the standard airway for rapid scenario changes, letting instructors toggle between normal and difficult airway presentations within a single training session without resetting equipment.
• Maximizes V2 trainer ROI: Rather than investing in a second dedicated difficult airway manikin, simulation centers expand their V2 trainer into a multi-scenario platform at a fraction of the cost.
• Ideal audiences: Emergency medicine physicians and residents, anesthesiologists, CRNAs, critical care nurses, paramedics, flight medics, and simulation center faculty running difficult airway curricula.
