CDT100

Chest Drain Insertion Simulator
..can be used on Advanced Trauma Courses

The Chest Drain Trainer is a unique design, combining simulated tactile soft tissue within a practical and durable plastic casing. The practice and training of clinical and surgical techniques can be realistically achieved.

Key Skills

• The identification of anatomical landmarks, such as the sternal notch and intercostal (rib) spaces
• The students can make surgical incisions through the simulated soft tissue
• Blunt dissection can be practiced with forceps * Complete finger rotation is possible 
• Practice realistic relief of Tension Pneumothorax between ribs 2 and 3 (where the release of air can be clearly heard and felt)
• Pericardiocentisis, where fluid can be aspirated into a syringe. This is to demonstrate removal of blood from the pericardium
• Seldinger technique can be used

Features

• This innovative design accurately simulates the key anatomy of the chest, providing a realistic alternative to the use of animal tissue
• The trainer presents as a patient lying flat on their back. Surgical access is lateral to the pectoralis major
• The Chest Drain will take 20-25 full insertions (and more if the Seldinger technique is used)
• The Chest Drain Trainer is used at many training centers world-wide, and on trauma life support courses in the UK
