摘要:
A portable medical training manikin with a hollow torso body with a chest plate having slotted openings provided to enable realistic flexing of the chest plate along hinges engaged with a chest compression piston. The torso body has a realistic skin covering the torso and interconnected at a hinge. A chest compression piston supports and resists chest compressions performed by a user. The chest compression piston is engaged with the central chest plate of the torso body by a quick release mechanism having detent locks for securing the piston engaged with the chest plate. A two-piece tiltable head configuration enables detachment of the back half of the head piece, and inversion for nested stacking within the front half head piece. The hollow torso body is likewise configured for convenient stacking, including the compression pistons, in a carrying container.

A physical abdominal surgical simulation system including an abdominal model mimicking the biomechanical properties and response of a patient specific abdomen and an image acquisition and analysis system. The abdominal model includes an abdominal wall model insert forming a frame of the abdominal model, an abdominal wall member secured to the abdominal wall model insert, a back member secured to the abdominal wall model insert in opposed relation with respect to the abdominal wall member, and an abdominal model cavity defined within abdominal wall model insert, the abdominal wall member, and the back member. The image acquisition and analysis system includes a plurality of cameras configured to capture images of the abdominal model cavity.

An educational system for visualizing sound by a student in a laboratory. The system includes a speaker powered by an audio amplifier. A function generator or a microphone controls the amplitude and frequency of pressure waves originating from the speaker. A model of the ear canal is suspended over the speaker, the model having a plastic pipe with two open ends and a membrane stretched taut over one of the open ends with constant tension. A mirror is affixed to the membrane, creating a mass-loaded membrane. A laser pointer emits light directed toward the mirror. A screen receives a light reflection pattern created by the light reflected from the mirror, with the model ear canal, speaker, membrane, and mirror placed equidistant between the screen and the laser pointer. The system is adapted to demonstrate hearing sensitivity to a deaf or hearing-impaired person in an educational setting.

A method for assisting a user with surgical implementation of a preoperative plan includes generating a physical native tissue model of a native patient tissue. The physical native tissue model includes at least one primary patient tissue area including a surface of interest, at least one secondary patient tissue area including no surfaces of interest, and a base surface for engaging a supporting structure. The physical native tissue model, as generated, includes at least one information feature providing clinically useful information to the user. The information feature is substantially separated from the surface of interest. An apparatus for assisting a user with surgical implementation of a preoperative plan is also provided.
摘要:
Described is a dynamic phantom. The phantom comprises a body having a front, a back, and an internal cavity between the front and the back, the body having a movable chest wall. The phantom also comprises a first motion mechanism that is actuated to move the chest wall to thereby move the front relative to the back of the body. The phantom also comprises a moveable organ member supported within the internal cavity that is caused to move relative to the body by a second motion mechanism. The phantom also comprises a drive source for driving the first and second motion mechanisms, wherein the first and second motion mechanisms move the chest wall and the moveable organ member to substantially represent their movement in a human body.
摘要:
A hydraulic model of the cardiovascular system for illustrating a plurality of physiological concepts and relationships including arterial compliance, venous compliance, and peripheral resistance, said model comprising: a.) a cardiac subsystem for moving a fluid in a singular direction in a closed hydraulic system; b.) an arterial subsystem for modeling arterial compliance, the arterial subsystem fluidically coupled with the cardiac subsystem to receive the fluid discharged from the cardiac subsystem; c.) a peripheral resistance subsystem for modeling peripheral resistance, the peripheral resistance subsystem fluidically coupled with the arterial subsystem to receive the fluid discharged from arterial subsystem; d.) a peripheral venous (PV) subsystem for modeling peripheral venous compliance and for modeling a peripheral venous pump (PVP), the peripheral venous subsystem fluidically coupled with the peripheral resistance subsystem to receive the fluid discharged from the at least one downstream conduit; and e.) a central venous (CV) subsystem for modeling central venous compliance and for modeling a thoracic pump (TP), the CV subsystem fluidically coupled with the PV subsystem to receive the fluid discharged from the PV subsystem and to pass the fluid to the cardiac subsystem to complete the cardiovascular cycle.
摘要:
A CPR patient training mannequin. The CPR patient training mannequin provides for training and teaching individuals in proper CPR technique. The mannequin includes a simulated torso section and simulated head section that enables a user to administer CPR and visually inspect the mannequin's response to the administration. The torso section utilizes a sensor configured to detect pressure exerted by a user performing chest compressions and includes one or more lights positioned in a simulated carotid artery and brain that are operably connected to the sensor. The lights are configured to illuminate to indicate the pressure exerted by a user. In an alternative embodiment, the torso section includes simulated lungs having lights that illuminate if a user properly performs a jaw-thrust maneuver and nose pinch on the mannequin.
