Simulaids Infant Choking Manikin

The infant choking manikin comes with life size head and torso of approximately a 9 month year old baby allowing the trainer to practice life saving techniques with the airway obstruction on this paediatric age group. The manikin functions on the principle of clearing a blocked airway with forced air generated with the proper procedure of abdominal thrusts or back blows. Once the object is lodged in the airway, the student must use the anatomical landmarks to decide where to place their hands and to decide how much pressure is required to accomplish the manoeuver. With the appropriate force applied, the students are rewarded with the visual confirmation of an expelled object.
