Gain first-hand insight into the daily physical challenges encountered by aging patients through the use of the Aged Simulation Suit II. This is an invaluable resource for healthcare professionals, particularly those engaged in or specialising in the field of geriatrics.
The body suit is designed to be worn as a comprehensive overall and can be effortlessly adjusted to modify the range of motion, enabling the simulation of conditions, such as hemiparesis. Furthermore, its user-friendly design facilitates easy donning and doffing, guaranteeing a smooth and uninterrupted practice experience.
Features of the simulation suit include:
- Efficient Fit-On: The suit can be easily worn in approximately 3 minutes. This overall-like bodysuit enables students to encounter physical restrictions with minimal time loss.
- Customisable Adjustment: Belts allow for the adjustment of hip angle and motion ranges in various body parts. This facilitates the realistic simulation of age-associated changes, one-sided body paralysis, and hemiplegia.
- Restriction Belt: Innovatively designed neck, elbow, and knee control belts restrict motion ranges, enabling wearers to experience the apprehension of not being able to promptly cope with potential dangers.
Developed with a foundation of extensive data analysis, the product enables wearers to experience the physical transformations associated with aging. This includes visual and auditory changes, diminished grip strength, and an overall decline in physical abilities.
For example:
- Getting in and out of a car: Individuals experience restricted arm and leg mobility.
- Steps / stairs: Problematic for those with back injuries and visibility issues can make navigation difficult without handrails.
- Eating: Grip string hinders the ability to securely hold cutlery during meals.
- Toileting: Difficulty in standing or sitting down poses challenges in bathroom activities
- Going out: Hearing impairment may prevent the elderly from perceiving human voices and vehicle sounds, while limited mobility makes it difficult to quickly turn and check their surroundings.
The Aged Simulation Suit II serves as an exceptional tool for gaining a deeper understanding of patients. This allows healthcare professionals to empathise with their challenges and perspectives.
