Overview
Designed with realism in mind, the Cardiovascular and Respiratory Exam Trainer includes a “LimbPAD”. Fit the device to any of the commonly used stethoscopes and simply use the stethoscope as normal.
Realism is key
The Cardiovascular and Respiratory Exam Trainer is our most lifelike simulator to date, with features that bring a new dimension to learning.
Variable chest rise – Symmetrical and asymmetrical chest rise can be set to varying rates, patterns and depth. Feeling and visualising this in a patient is a difficult skill, and this feature gives a haptic and visual learning opportunity.
Finger on the pulse – Set a pulse profile with normal or abnormal properties to improve students’ diagnostic skills. Palpable pulse points throughout the body give realistic, and organic, feel.
Realistic thrills at all heart valve locations.
Visual and palpable representation of heaves.
Normal and displaced apex beat.
Normal and displaced trachea and larynx.
Suitable for group training
There are two ways to take the CaRE’s teaching capabilities to the next level:
A second LimbPAD can be added to your CaRE model, allowing two, hands-on students to be taught at the same time.
With the addition of an off-the-shelf external speaker connected to the LimbPAD via an aux 3.5mm jack, a whole class will be able to participate in training.
Simple user controls for students and teachers
Connect your device wirelessly to the CaRE Examination Trainer to control all aspects of the model. Students can test and refresh their knowledge, while teachers can challenge their students’ skills with bespoke characteristics.
Skills section – practice individual skills, including: heart auscultation, lung auscultation, breathing rates, Pulse rates and character, apex beats, thrills, heaves, and mouth sounds.
Clinical cases – capitalises on the patent pending performance of the pulses, lung & heart movement, mouth sounds and chest movements.
Assessment mode – teachers can make class assessments based on the clinical cases, patient history are customisable and make for perfect self-directed learning.
Lesson plans – create individual plans with selected skills, cases and assessments for structured lessons and self-directed learning.
