About the Emergency Medical Trauma Trainer – Tactical
Medical Upper (EMITT-TMU)
The TraumaFX® Emergency Medical Trauma Trainer – Tactical Medical Upper
(EMITT-TMU) is a ruggedized tetherless medical training upper body unit that
delivers powerfully realistic simulations of traumatic injuries to the upper body. It
helps trainees learn how to treat and perform interventions on patients suffering
from traumatic upper body and airway injuries. The EMITT-TMU is covered in
lifelike synthetic skin and includes a simulated rib cage and sternum. Students learn
to find realistic anatomic landmarks to execute critical patient treatment without
relying on marked indicators. EMITT-TMU helps teach responders to perform life-
saving tasks such as maintaining a patient’s airway, needle chest decompression,
intraosseous infusion, and intubation. The TraumaFX EMITT-TMU is unparalleled
in ruggedness and durability, and was designed specifically for use in tough outdoor
terrains, and features articulating shoulders and realistic, reinforced silicone arms. It
can be carried, dragged, and transported in a variety of vehicles and aircraft. The
EMITT-TMU can withstand nearly any weather condition, making it ideally suited
for real world simulation training for Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) and
Combat Lifesaver training courses.
The EMITT-TMU is a multi-purpose training simulator that can function as a stand-
alone skills station or be connected to any TraumaFX® lower torso trainer for use
in training lanes. EMITT-TMU’s simulated injury and intervention sites allow for
multiple uses with cost-effective replacement components.
EMITT-TMU is designed for rugged use in realistic training environments. To
ensure proper operation, do not subject EMITT-TMU units to unnecessarily harsh
treatment. Care for the EMITT-TMU as you would a live patient. Also, careful
preventive maintenance and frequent after-use inspection is essential to ensure the
service life of your EMITT-TMU unit. Please review Chapter 5: After Use Care
which outlines the standard preventive maintenance required under the terms of the

Special Notes and Cautions
Read all TraumaFX® instructional manuals before attempting to assemble,
install, or operate the Emergency Medical Trauma Trainer – Tactical Medical
(EMITT-TMU) or accessories.
Do Not Over Lubricate
The EMITT-TMU throat is pre-lubricated, but additional lubrication is
necessary to simulate realistic throat moisture and to reduce friction
and allow for easier intubation. It also serves to extend the life of the
throat. An 8 oz. bottle of silicone lubricant is provided for this
purpose. Use two or three sprays only – do not over lubricate! Over lubrication
will make intubation more difficult. It is recommended to also lightly spray
lubricant on the ET Tubes, King LT-Ds and other insertion devices for easier
insertion into the throat.
After Use Care
EMITT-TMU is designed for rugged use in realistic training environments. To
keep EMITT-TMU working optimally, careful preventive maintenance and
frequent after-use inspection will extend the service life of the EMITT-TMU, and is
required under the terms of the limited warranty. Please reviewAfter Use Care
(Chapter 5) which details the tasks to perform at the end of every training session.
Water Resistance and Cleanup
DO NOT USE PRESSURIZED WATER OR SUBMERGE THE
EMITT-TMU UNDER WATER. REMOVE BATTERIES
BEFORE CLEAN UP TO AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCK!
EMITT-TMU is water resistant, but is not waterproof. With water only, carefully
wash the EMITT-TMU with a soft, wet cloth or sponge after each use. Vigorous
scrubbing of the skin can result in permanent damage. If EMITT-TMU is used with
any TraumaFX simulated blood products, the simulated blood should be washed
out of clothes within 24 hours to avoid staining; pre-treatment of stains and
vigorous cleaning will usually remove simulated bloodstains.
Possible Reaction to Synthetic Blood Mix
The chemical components that comprise TraumaFX® organic dye
blood mix may cause skin and eye irritation for some users. Avoid
ingestion or inhalation. If eye contact occurs, check for and remove
any contact lenses, immediately flush eyes with water for at least 15
minutes; cold water may be used. Get medical attention if irritation occurs. Should
skin contact occur and the skin becomes irritated, wash with soap and water. Get
medical attention if irritation persists. If blood powder is accidently inhaled,
remove victim to fresh air. If breathing difficulties occur, seek medical attention
immediately. If blood mix is ingested (powder or liquid form), DO NOT induce
vomiting unless directed to do so by a physician. Never give anything by mouth to

INTRODUCTION

an unconscious person. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt, or
waistband. Immediately get medical attention.
System Weight
The EMITT-TMU is designed to replicate the weight and feel of a live
human patient. To prevent injury, use caution and proper procedures
when lifting or carrying the manikin or cases.
Simulated Blood
Only use TraumaFX®-provided simulated blood and blood mixes in
the EMITT-TMU unit. Use of other liquids or the addition of any
substance, including detergents, to the blood mix may damage internal
components and will void the manufacturer’s limited warranty.
To preserve the life of the simulated blood paste, please store in a dark, cool
location.
Radio Control
The Radio Control (RC) system used to operate the EMITT-TMU has
an extended range (see technical specifications) and can be used
indoors or outdoors. Note that indoor range is subject to building
design and construction materials. Test system operations whenever setting up in a
new location or moving to a different area of a building.
Third Party User Manuals
The EMITT-TMU uses third-party commercially available
equipment. Where such equipment is provided, the associated user
manuals and any pertinent documentation are provided as well.
Storage
The EMITT-TMU unit, accessories, and fluids should be stored in a
cool, dry location.
Compliance
If the EMITT-TMU is used in a manner not specified by the
manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be
impaired.

EMITT-TMU FEATURES
7
Ruggedized, Realistic Synthetic Skin
The outer skin of EMITT-TMU is designed to provide the “look-and-feel” of real
skin and incorporates simulated injuries for added realism in trauma training. The
skin is very rugged, but must be maintained regularly to ensure longevity. EMITT-
TMU’s simulated skin is made of a proprietary silicone compound and features
realistic wounds.
Material
EMITT-TMU’s skin is made of a silicone-based compound that requires cleaning
with water. This simulated skin covers the EMITT-TMU trainer. The internal
structure of EMITT-TMU’s upper body is composed of a ruggedized core and
layered with realistic silicone-based skin. This construction results in a high-fidelity
look and feel with exceptional durability that allows EMITT-TMU to be carried or
dragged on many surfaces such as outdoors or flooring commonly found in
buildings.
Cautions and Care
The EMITT-TMU unit is water resistant, but not water proof. Avoid direct water
contact with the battery compartment. When washing EMITT-TMU, use only
water. Never use ink or marker to write on EMITT-TMU. Doing so can cause
damage to the skin’s surface during removal.
When washing the EMITT-TMU, use caution to prevent water from entering the
mechanical and electrical areas of the unit – the battery compartment should be
closed and secured before cleaning. Always use gentle pressure and avoid vigorous
scrubbing of the skin.
Often in live training scenarios, EMITT-TMU’s simulated blood may come into
contact with a user’s clothes. To reduce the risk of staining, simulated blood should
be treated with detergent and be washed out of clothes within 24 hours of exposure.

Chapter 3: Getting Started
Read all TraumaFX® manuals before attempting to assemble,
install, or operate the Emergency Medical Trauma Trainer –
Tactical Medical (EMITT-TMU) or accessories.
Notes on General Use and Care
EMITT-TMU is designed for rugged use in realistic training environments. To
ensure proper operation, care for the unit as you would a human patient by not
subjecting EMITT-TMU to unnecessarily harsh treatment. Also, careful preventive
maintenance and frequent after-use inspection is essential to ensure the service life
of the unit(s). Please review Chapter 5: After Use Care, which outlines the after
use care required under the terms of the EMITT-TMU limited warranty.
Only use TraumaFX®-provided TraumaFX® simulated blood
and blood mixes in your EMITT-TMU unit. Use of other liquids or
the addition of any substance, including detergents, to the blood mix
may damage internal components and will void the limited warranty.
Charging the Batteries
EMITT-TMU & RC Transmitter Batteries
Read all instructions provided in the Operating Manual – Makita
Battery Charger before using.
Each EMITT-TMU trainer utilizes three (3) 18v Makita Lithium-Ion batteries for
operation. Two batteries power the unit, and the third battery powers the RC
transmitter. The RC Transmitter, its battery, and the Makita battery charger are
provided with your lower body simulator, and can be found in that case. Additional
batteries are available for purchase through TraumaFX® by contacting your
account representative or customer support.
Only use the batteries and charger(s) provided by TraumaFX®; use of different
equipment may result in damage to the batteries and/or TraumaFX equipment and
will void the limited warranty. Read the instructions for the Makita battery and
charger in the Operating Manual – Makita Battery Charger provided with your
lower body simulator.
Chapter

The EMITT-TMU and RC Transmitter battery is a consumable item (with a one (1)
year manufacturer’s warranty); as with most batteries, Makita batteries have a finite
shelf life. After considerable use, a “used” battery’s capacity will drop to a point
that it will no longer be able to hold a charge.
The EMITT-TMU contains a low voltage disconnect feature that will automatically
shut the unit off when battery voltage drops to a certain level. If EMITT-TMU
stops operating, remove and recharge batteries or replace with fully charged
batteries.
Recharging the EMITT-TMU and RC Transmitter Batteries
1. Plug the Makita quick charger (Figure 3)
into a standard 110V wall outlet. This
charger can be found in the case for the
matching lower body simulator.
2. Slide the battery onto the quick charger
until firmly in place and the indicator
light illuminates (each battery takes
approximately 15-30 minutes to charge,
and depending on the amount of usage,
provides up to 4 hours of training
support).
3. Remove the battery when readout
indicates charging is complete.
NOTE: A 220V Makita charger is available for International use. This is a special-
order item and available for purchase through TraumaFX® by contacting customer
support or your account representative.
General Use and Care of Batteries
All batteries used in TraumaFX products were specially selected to provide optimal
operational performance. However, as with all batteries, they will last longer with
proper care and maintenance. To preserve the life of the batteries, the following
best practices are recommended:
1. Only use the batteries and charger(s) provided by TraumaFX®; use of
different equipment may result in damage to the batteries and/or the
TraumaFX unit(s).
2. Remove all batteries from EMITT-TMU and the RC Transmitter at the
end of each training session. Batteries should never be stored inside a
unit (EMITT-TMU or RC Transmitter)
Figure 3

GETTING STARTED
10
3. Recharge batteries immediately after use by placing them in the Makita
battery charger.
4. Fully recharge all batteries before each training exercise. This is
indicated by a solid green light on the charger for each battery.
5. Never mix a fully charged battery with a partially charged battery as
this will cause the TraumaFX unit to not operate properly.
6. Never mix an old battery with a new battery as this will quickly degrade
the new battery.
7. Never mix batteries of different capacities; Makita batteries come in
capacities from 3.0 to 6.0 A-hr; ensure both batteries placed in the unit
have the same capacity rating on the side of the battery.
8. Store batteries indoors, away from extreme temperatures (not above
120°F or below 38°F).
9. Only charge TraumaFX-related batteries using the approved chargers
supplied with the TraumaFX system.

Simulated Bleeding for IV Flash Cue
Mixing the TraumaFX® Blood Powder
The blood powder and mixed blood solutions may stain fabric and
porous surfaces. Do not add any other substance to the blood
(including detergents) as they may damage internal components and
will void the limited warranty.
Use care when transporting pre-mixed blood or open bags of blood mix powder. If
a surface or fabric comes into contact with the simulated blood solution, treat with
detergent as soon as possible to avoid permanent stains. Simulated Blood should be
washed out of clothing as soon as possible (preferably within 24 hours) to avoid
staining. Pre-treatment of stains and vigorous cleaning will usually remove
simulated bloodstains. Only use detergents and cleansers recommended by the
manufacturer(s) of the affected surfaces or fabrics. If dry blood powder is spilled,
avoid contact with liquids. Sweep or vacuum the affected area immediately.
To mix the blood powder, follow the instructions below:
1. Remove any items from inside the blood filling system, and check that
bucket is clear of dirt or debris
2. Fill the blood fill container with the desired amount of water
3. Open the corresponding number of blood powder packets (1 packet per
gallon) and empty the entire contents of each blood powder packet into the
blood fill container
4. Stir the blood powder into the water until thoroughly mixed.
Filling/Refilling the EMITT-TMU with Blood
See Chapter 4 Simulated IV Insertion Site with Flash Cue for filling and operating
the IV system.

Applying Blood Paste
Blood paste can be applied to enhance the
realism of EMITT-TMU’s wounds and
various surfaces in staged training areas
(Figure 10). One (1) gallon of pre-mixed
blood paste is provided with the
TraumaFX® lower unit. Additional
quantities can be purchased by contacting
TraumaFX® customer service or your
account representative.
Blood paste provides the look of coagulated
blood. The paste can be rubbed onto simulated wounds using a paintbrush, sponge,
or fingers to enhance their realistic appearance and feel, and can be used to provide
the appearance of coagulated blood on floors, walls, doors, or other surfaces (see
caution above regarding staining of surfaces with simulated blood compounds).
