Description
Simulaids® Choking Manikin – Adult
As choking emergencies aren’t selective when it comes to age groups, Simulaids brings to you three generations of choking manikins to choose from.
This adult torso and head include two foreign objects on a string that can simulate a choking person. It functions on the principle of clearing a blocked airway with forced air generated from abdominal thrusts or back blows.
Once an object is lodged in the airway the student then decides, using the anatomical landmarks for reference, where to place their hands. The amount of pressure needed to complete the manoeuvre.
When the correct amount of force is applied, there is a visual confirmation of the expelled foreign object.
Adult Choking Manikin includes:
Rib cage
Xiphoid process
Suprasternal notch
