What type of lubrication can be used during intubation practice?
We recommend TruCorp’s lubrication for best practice, but alternatives can be used provided they are water-soluble lubricants. Please do not use silicone-based products as they will degrade the materials.
Does the Smart Airway Child require assembly?
No, this training manikin is delivered ready to use so you can begin training straight away! Simply, power up the manikin and connect to the Smart Airway app. Generously spray the oral/nasal passages and equipment with the lubrication provided.
What equipment sizes are recommended?
• 4.5-5.0 mm ID for nasal intubation
• 5.5-6.0 mm ID for oral intubation
• Size 2 laryngoscope blade
• Size 2 for LMA laryngeal masks
• Similar respective sizes for other supraglottic devices
Does the manikin provide user feedback to indicate successful or failed procedures?
Yes, if successfully intubated you will see a visible chest rise. If the student has failed to intubate, the app will highlight incorrect intubation i.e the tube has been inserted into the stomach.
Can I make intubation more difficult on the Smart Airway Child manikin?
The tongue can be inflated to simulate tongue edema. Attach a syringe to the connector located on the base of the manikin and insert approx. 20ml of air.
