Airway interventions
The airway is anatomically modelled as far as the bronchia and can be manipulated by a learner:
Head tilt/Chin lift
Jaw thrust with articulated jaw
Cricoid pressure and manipulation
Simulated suctioning (oral and nasopharyngeal)
NOTE
For advanced ventilation training, the Advanced Lung Module (ALM) or ASL 5000 is recommended.
If the tongue fallback feature is enabled, head tilt is required to open the airways for mask ventilations.
The following information is automatically registered in the SimMan CC simulation session:
Detection of proper head position
Jaw thrust
Pneumothorax decompression
Ventilations
Stomach distension
