Suction for Tube Feeding Simulator
This model can be used to practice the insertion of suction catheters into the nasal cavity, oral cavity and tracheostomy site, as well suction procedures, nasogastric tube feeding, and gastrostomy care procedures, routinely applied in the nursing and caregiving fields.
Features
Suction
- Silicone rubber is used for the model, so that students can practice with an exterior and feel that are very close to those of a living human body.
- Insertion of suction catheters into the nasal cavity, oral cavity and suctioning practice can be performed.
- The facial region can be divided into two halves along the midline, allowing confirmation of the actual insertion status of a suction catheter or nasogastric tube. The model is also designed to enable study of the anatomical structures of the nasal cavity, oral cavity and cervical area.
- The simulated sputum provided as an accessory can be inserted into the nasal cavity, oral cavity or trachea, for training. This allows students to train in the same manner as the actual procedure, and enables more effective suction training. (Viscosity of the simulated sputum can be controlled using water.
Tube feeding / Gastrostomy care
- The facial region can be divided into two halves along the midline, allowing confirmation of the actual insertion status of a suction catheter or nasogastric tube. The model is also designed to enable study of the anatomical structures of the nasal cavity, oral cavity and cervical area.
- Insertion of the feeding tube all the way to the gastric fundus can be practiced. Air bubble sounds can be heard and suction of gastric fluid can be used to confirm the insertion of the tube.
- Placement and care of gastrostomy tube can be practiced.
- The tube feeding components come with an internal tank, allowing nasogastric tube feeding and gastrostomy management using actual liquids. Techniques can also be practiced using actual nutrient solution, equivalent to routine nursing care settings.
- The tank has a drainage function, so there is no need to worry about overflow when the tank becomes full.
- The model can be taken apart for very easy maintenance. The tanks for liquids are washable, so hygiene is not a worry.
