Full-Body Pregnancy Simulator Ⅱ
By interchanging various parts, procedures such as external examination of a pregnant woman, internal examination during stages of delivery, practical obstetric assistance, perineal suture of soft birth canal lacerations, palpation of the uterus fundus during the puerperal period, and breast care can be practiced. Obstetric assistance can be practiced on the model in either a supine or free-style position.
Features
Obstetric Abdominal Palpation Model
- Representing 36th to 40th weeks of pregnancy.
- Visual diagnosis, palpation and abdominal measurements (abdominal girth, fundal height) according to the four types of Leopold's Maneuvers, monitoring of fetal heartbeats, and breast care can be practiced.
- Changing the position and orientation of the fetus enables diagnosis in various fetal positions and orientations, and diagnosis of stability and mobility of the fatal presenting part.
- The fetal heartbeat can be adjusted between 80 and 180 bpm.
Leopold's Maneuvers
Monitoring of the Fetal Heartbeat
Vaginal Examination Model
- Vaginal Examination Model Vulva Ⅱ is made from a highly elastic and soft material that gives the feeling of the vaginal wall surrounding the finger.
- The ischial spine and pubic symphysis can be felt.
- Bishop scores from the late stage of pregnancy to the onset of labor (cervical dilation, effacement, consistency and position) can be confirmed.
- Three models with varying degrees of uterus opening dilation are provided, along with a model of the fetal head. These can be interchanged and the degree of engagement of fetal head can be adjusted, making it possible to gauge the progression of labor by means of vaginal examination.
- The fetal head model can be used to gauge rotation of the fetal head by varying positions of the sagittal sutures and posterior fontanel.
- The vulva has a urethral orifice for inserting a urinary catheter.
Vaginal Examination
Obstetric Assistant Model
- The obstetric model - vulva Ⅱ is made with a highly elastic and durable material that decreases resistance and reduces the amount of force needed to extract the fetus during delivery, enabling smooth practice. (Use glycerin to lubricate.)
- The fetal model and placenta model can be attached to practice the entire sequence of steps from delivering the fetus to tying the umbilical cord, cutting the umbilical cord, and delivering the placenta.
- Protection of the perineum can be practiced.
- Breech extraction can also be practiced as one type of emergency response.
- The placenta model's umbilical cord can be manipulated with Kocher forceps and an umbilical clip. It is also possible to reproduce the nuchal cord.
- The fetal head allows suction cups (soft type) to be used so that procedures such as vacuum and forceps delivery can be practiced.
Free-style Delivery
By changing between various positions, including supine, hands and knees, lateral, and standing, the fetal model can be rotated according to each position, providing several positions for obstetric assistant practice.
