SimPad System Includes:
SimPad, Link Box, 2 AC Power Supplies, Rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery, Wrist strap for SimPad, Manikin strap for Link Box, SimPad sleeve, USB cable, Ethernet cable, Handset/Microphone and Directions for use.
Simulated Patient Monitor options:
- Portable tablet monitor
- Bedside panel monitor
- Rugged tablet monitor
The optional touchscreen patient monitor simulates Heart rate, SpO2, Blood Pressure, Respiratory Rate, Temperature, ECG, and etCO2.
Blood Pressure
• Auscultated and palpated blood pressure simulation
• Korotkoff sounds synchronized with programmable ECG
• Korotkoff sounds volume control in 10 steps, 0-9
• Systolic and diastolic pressure may be set individually in steps of 2mmhg
• Systolic 0-300mmhg, Diastolic 0-200 mmhg
• Auscultative gap, with on/off feature
• Pressure accuracy +/- 4mmhg
• Calibrate function to adjust pressure sensor and cuff gauge
Pulses
• Controls carotid, brachial, radial, and umbilical pulses (available pulses vary depending on manikin)
• Pulses only active when palpated
• Pulses synchronized with ECG
• Pulse strengths dependent or independently set.
• Brachial pulse off when BP cuff pressure is above 20 mmhg
• Radial pulse off when BP cuff pressure is above Systolic BP level
ECG
• 3 – 4 lead ECG
• Pacing and defibrillation capabilities
• Extensive ECG library based on the SimMan 3G ECG library
• With optional patient monitor: 12 lead ECG
