About the Simulator
The Nasco Healthcare’s Life/form®Child Airway Management
Trainer is the most realistic simulator available for the training
of intubation skills. Nasco Healthcare has taken great care to
create an airway management trainer that is anatomically
correct in respect to both size and detail.
Landmarks include nostrils, teeth, tongue, oral and nasal
pharynx, larynx, epiglottis, arytenoids, false and true vocal
cords, cricoid ring, tracheal rings, trachea, and esophagus.
The Life/form®Child Airway Management Trainer allows you to
practice oral, digital, and nasal intubation. Suction techniques
can also be performed and evaluated. The simulator was
designed to use an uncuffed endotracheal tube measuring
up to 5.0 mm In Diameter.

Lubrication:
Before using the Life/form® Child Airway Management Trainer,
lubricate both the appliance and airway with the pump spray
lubricant provided. (See figure 1.)
Please Note: Nasco Healthcare
recommends the use of the pro-
vided lubricant or a similar vege-
table-based lubricant for the Child
Airway Management Trainer.
The use of a silicone-based or simi-
lar lubricant may cause damage to
the simulator, thus voiding Nasco’s
warranty on the trainer.
Palpable Carotid Pulse
Provided squeeze bulb can be used to manually simulate a bilat-
eral carotid pulse.
Cleaning and Maintenance
To clean the Airway Management Trainer, stabilize the head on
the counter face-up (towels work well for this) with the tubes
hanging over the sink. Carefully pour warm soapy water (a mild
dish soap works best) into the mouth until the water level
reaches halfway up the tongue. Now tilt the head back and
bring the neck up off the countertop.
Continue filling until the water level covers the tongue. At this
point, take a small soft brush and gently scrub the inside
of the mouth (a small toothbrush works well for this). Cotton
swabs can be used to scrub inside the nostrils. When done,
drain the water into the sink. Now pick the head up and hold it
in a vertical position to completely empty the system.
Rinsing the Airway
To rinse the airway, follow the same procedure using clean,
warm tap water. Repeat this process until all the soap has been
flushed from the system.

Disinfecting the Airway
To disinfect, repeat the standard cleaning procedure, but this
time use a bleach solution instead of soapy water, as specified
by the Centers for Disease Control. Fill the system with the
solution until it reaches the corners of the mouth.
Remember to start filling with the head flat and finish with the
neck slightly elevated to ensure that the solution completely
fills all airway passages. Once completely filled with the bleach
solution, allow the head to sit for at least 10 minutes. Capping
the airway with the supplied red caps will hold the fluid in the
simulator. Drain as described earlier and repeat the rinsing
process to flush out all the bleach solution. Set the head aside
and allow it to dry completely.
Cleaning the Face
Normal soil can be removed from the face of the trainer with
mild soapy water. Nasco Cleaner (LF09919) will remove
stubborn stains. Simply apply Nasco Cleaner to the soiled area
and wipe clean with a soft cloth or paper towel.
Note: Do not use Nasco Cleaner around the mouth and nostrils,
as the residue of the cleaner could be toxic.
Caution: Never place the trainer on any kind of printed paper or
plastic. These materials will transfer indelible stains. Ballpoint
pens will also make indelible stains. Do not use any cosmetics.
Important — Storage of Your Simulator:
The unit must be stored as you received it to avoid damaging
the simulator.
