APL-PB
AirwayPlus Lifecast - Pulses/Breathing (APL-PB)
The TraumaFX® AirwayPlus Lifecast - Pulses/Breathing (APL-PB) medical simulator was created specifically to address the treatment of
traumatic upper body injuries and incorporates pulses, breathing, and real-time feedback to create a uniquely realistic training experience for
Medics and First Responders. Using the APL-PB, learners are able to physically locate both radial and carotid pulses, assess breathing patterns
and use this information to perform appropriate interventions. As the student administers treatment, trainers receive instant feedback of performance via the easy-to-use Remote Control to assess student performance and provide After Action Reporting (AAR).
The APL-PB is constructed with a durable urethane core and specially formulated, life-like silicone skin, and is designed to operate in inhospitable
conditions and tough, outdoor scenarios. The APL-PB is an extremely effective multipurpose training tool allowing learners to perform critical
life-saving tasks that include maintaining an airway, needle decompression, cricothyroidotomy, intraosseous infusion, and chest tube insertion.
The APL-PB can be connected to any TraumaFX® lower trainer to increase training capabilities.
Key Benefits of TraumaFX® APL-PB:
