Airway
Caution
The use of silicon or any other lubricant not
approved by Laerdal may cause damage to
the airway.
Note
Electronic components are mounted inside the
simulator's head.The following techniques should
not be performed on this simulator due to the
inability to properly sanitize the airway if they
are performed:
• Mouth-to-mouth/Mouth-to-mask ventilation.
• Insertion of simulated vomit for suctioning.
• If simulator is turned off while closure
valve is in closed position, valve will open
automatically when simulator is turned on.
Pulses
Note
Do not use excessive force when palpating the
carotid pulse as this will result in no pulse felt.
IV-Arm
Notes
• To extend life of IV arm, a 22 gauge needle
or smaller is recommended for use.
• If training session involves administration of
fluids and/or drugs, empty arm immediately
following session.This to avoid damage/stains
on manikin while stored.
Chest Compressions (RA Sim only)
Note
To avoid damaging the spontaneous breathing
bladder, do not perform chest compressions while
the spontaneous breathing function is activated.
Debrillation with Paddle:
Cautions
• Defibrillation must be performed over the two
defib connectors only. Paddle adapters are
supplied for use with manual defibrillators.
• Only apply the defibrillator to a defibrillation
chest skin which is properly mounted on the
manikin's chest.
• Do not provide more than 2 x 360J
defibrillator discharges per minute as an
average over a period of time to prevent
overheating.
• The manikin chest must be kept dry. Special
attention should be taken when using IV Arm.
• Do not apply conductive gel or conductive
defibrillation pads intended for patient use to
prevent chest skin pitting.
• Do not use cables or connectors with
visible damage. Observe all normal safety
precautions for use of defibrillators.
Debrillation with Shocklink:
Cautions
• Defibrillation must be performed using
ShockLink only. Refer to ShockLink Important
Product Information. Paddle adapters are not
possible to use.
• Refer to ShockLink Important Product
Information for defibrillator discharge rate.
• The manikin chest must be kept dry. Special
attention should be taken when using IV Arm.
• Do not apply conductive gel or conductive
defibrillation pads intended for patient use to
prevent chest skin pitting.
• Do not use cables or connectors with
visible damage. Observe all normal safety
precautions for use of defibrillators.
Troubleshooting
• No chest rise (RA Sim only) when
spontaneous breathing is activated: If
spontaneous breathing is activated and no
chest rise is observed, make sure there is
enough air in the air container. Check also
that the breathing bladder has no leakage.
• Electromagnetic radiation from other radio
transmitters or other electronic equipment
may cause noise in the head speaker.To
eliminate this noise move manikin away from
the radiation source or turn the head speaker
volume to zero.
