Core Procedural Capabilities

• Airway Management: Features a realistic airway with a tongue, vocal cords, trachea, and esophagus. It can be endotracheally and nasally intubated. Proper manual ventilation generates chest rise, while improper intubation can lead to a belly rise. The resistance of either lung can be adjusted manually.
• CPR Training: Can be used to practice Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR), using the two-thumb technique.
• Vascular Access (IV/IO/Umbilical): Supports multiple IV access points on the scalp via the superficial temporal veins, enabling two wet IV lines to be placed. It also allows for IO infusion and training of umbilical cord catheterization through the umbilical vein. The umbilical cord is easily replaced after recurring use.
• Other Medical Procedures: Features a fontanel and a stomach, which can be accessed through orogastric intubation. It also allows for bladder catheterization.
