Airway hygiene

Please note that if mouth-to-mouth or mouth-to-nose

ventilation has been performed, a thorough cleaning of the upper

airways, and a replacement of the lower airways are necessary.

See section "Cleaning upper airways".

However, we recommend that this manikin not be used for

mouth-to-mouth or mouth-to-nose ventilation.

ENGLISH

Intraosseous access via tibia bone

The left leg is designed with a recess that houses a replaceable

pad containing a simulated tibia with artificial bone marrow.

For pad placement, refer to section "Assembly - Getting Started".

With the pad in place, intraosseous access can be practised

according to clinical protocol.

To confirm that the needle is correctly inserted in the tibia bone,

simulated bone marrow can be aspirated into a syringe.

When the needle is withdrawn, the sleeve surrounding the tibia

bone will seal around the entrance point so that further

punctures can be performed without excessive leakage.

A permanent hole, however, will be left in the tibia bone after

each puncture. Up to 15 punctures can normally be performed

before pad replacement will be necessary. However, this will vary

depending on how densely the punctures are performed.

To replace an intraosseous pad, carefully bend the left foot

downward and release the lower part of the pad from the recess

in the foot.

Pull out the pad and discard.

Place a new pad as described in the section "Assembly -

Getting Started".

Vascular access

A pulse is simulated via a manually operated pulse bulb.

ECG can be monitored using the four ECG electrodes on the

chest skin if the manikin is connected to the 3-lead outlet of the

Laerdal Heartsim 200 or other simulator with compatible outlets.

Warning!

The Laerdal ALS Baby Trainer must not be defibrillated.The monitoring

electrodes are not designed to absorb high voltage / high energy

shocks. Application of such shocks may cause a potential shock

hazard to the operator and may also damage the connected cardiac

rhythm simulator.
