The One-Year-Old Patient Heart and Lung Sounds Skills Trainer is an essential education tool that demonstrates to students the appropriate locations to auscultate specific heart and lung sounds. The trainer serves as an invaluable asset for clinical skills sessions and provides medical students with the relevant clinical competence.
Utilising a cutting-edge wireless approach, the student is required to identify the precise anatomical landmarks of the manikin to perceive specific sounds. Upon detection of the correct location, the corresponding sound can be heard through either a stethoscope or external speakers.
Key features of the auscultation trainer include:
- Life-size paediatric manikin that includes palpable anatomical landmarks
- Sensor network located beneath the skin
- Virtual stethoscope featuring multiple heart and lung sounds
- Moving the stethoscope across the front or back of the torso activates the appropriate sound
- An external speaker can be connected to the stethoscope allowing a classroom to listen in as well
The One-Year-Old Patient Heart and Lung Sounds Skills Trainer is accompanied by a soft carrying case, which provides convenience for storage and transport. Furthermore, an instruction manual is provided to enable users to access additional information.
