TruBaby X

Realistic pediatric skills model for lifelike training

Durable Pediatric Simulator

The TruBaby X pediatric simulation manikin is a versatile and true-to-life clinical skills trainer built to withstand repeated use in a busy classroom setting. This pediatric medical manikin can be used alongside our TruMonitor patient monitor simulator to integrate clinical decision-making with medical technique training.

WHY CHOOSE THE TRUBABY X MODEL?

• It’s realistic! Weight, size and movement of a 50th percentile 5-month-old baby
• A complete solution for pediatric clinical skills training, ideal for practicing DOP’S, PALS and critical procedures in emergency pediatric medicine.
• The model has been designed as fully interchangeable, all the parts are cost-effective and can be replaced quickly when required.
• Initial set-up time is less than 5 mins.
• Internal fluid flow for realistic blood flashback during IV cannulations.
• Features the AirSim X airway which provides realistic and durable training and comes with a 5-year warranty. 1-year warranty as standard for all other parts on the TruBaby X
• Delivered in a durable carry case for easy transportation and safe storage.

PEDIATRIC AIRWAY MANAGEMENT

TruBaby X features the durable and realistic TruCorp AirSim X airway and facilitates infant airway management training including:

• Endotracheal tube insertion with chest rise
• Double nasotracheal intubation
• BVM (bag-valve-mask) ventilation techniques
• Supraglottic device insertion (full range)
• Direct & video laryngoscopy
• Realistic movement including head tilt, chin lift and jaw thrust
• Modular design so all parts are fully interchangeable

We offer a full line of adult, child and infant airway mannequins.

INFANT CPR TRAINING

CPR techniques differ depending on the age of the recipient. The TruBaby X System allows realistic infant CPR training to improve practitioner confidence and patient safety featuring:

• Realistic rib structure with xiphoid process and sternum
• Full recommended depth of 1.5 inches can be achieved with full chest recoil
• Chest structure has lifelike recoil during compressions, accurate representation of rise and fall during ventilation
• Realistic look and feel of tissues representing skin, fat and muscle

Though infants are far smaller than adults, performing high-quality chest compressions during CPR is equally important. TruBaby X’s lifelike responsiveness to compressions and ventilation allows for realistic practice to improve patient outcomes. Like all our simulation manikins, this model is built to withstand repeated use in a busy training environment.

PEDIATRIC PERIPHERAL VENOUS CANNULATION – NEW & IMPROVED

Peripheral IV (intravenous) catheters can be inserted into peripheral veins to administer treatments, transfusions or IV fluids. TruBaby X facilitates peripheral venous cannulation practice in the arm, hand, or foot.

Peripheral venous cannulation (Hand and Arm)

• Contains the dorsal venous arch, cephalic and basilic veins allowing needle cannulation at various locations.
• Activation of the normal venous blood flow mode allows fluids to be withdrawn and administered providing realistic blood flashback.
• The pediatric IV arm trainer facilitates up to 300+ needle penetrations using a size 24g needle.

Peripheral venous cannulation (Foot)

• Contains the Dorsal venous arch, great and lesser saphenous veins allowing needle cannulation at various locations.
• Activation of the normal venous blood flow mode allows fluids to be withdrawn and administered providing realistic blood flashback.
• The foot facilitates up to 250+ needle penetrations using a size 24g needle.

The newly developed TruBaby X Arms and Legs create more realistic approach to IV cannulation.

INFANT LUMBAR PUNCTURE

Lumbar puncture acquires a sample of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) for testing to confirm or exclude diagnosis of infection (bacterial, viral or fungal).

TruBaby X facilitates lumbar puncture training with:

• Ability to maneuver the baby into the required lateral decubitus position or sit upright
• Palpable vertebrae landmarks including the iliac crest
• Insertion sites include L3-L4 and L4-L5 spine locations
• Accurate needle placement allows for positive response and collection of simulated cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)
• Fluid is isolated and can be quickly refilled for a unique training experience
• Insert can last for 100+ needle penetrations using a 22g needle and is fully interchangeable

NEEDLE THORACENTESIS FOR A TENSION PNEUMOTHORAX

Tension pneumothorax results when alveoli (air sacs in lungs) rupture and leak air into the pleural space (between lung and chest wall).

TruBaby allows training in needle thoracentesis at the 2nd & 5th intercostal spaces and features:

• Realistic rib structures including xiphoid process and clavicle
• Palpable landmarks in the 2nd intercostal space midclavicular line and the 5th intercostal space midaxillary line
• Easily interchangeable inserts
• Each needle decompression insert facilitates 150+ needle penetrations using an 18g needle

CHEST DRAIN (AIR ONLY)

• Palpable landmarks in the 5th intercostal space mid auxiliary line.
• Facilitates either the Seldinger chest drain insertion technique or the needle thoracentesis approach for the treatment of a pneumothorax.
• Each chest drain insert facilitates single use via the Seldinger approach with a size 8F chest tube.
• Alternatively, each chest drain insert can facilitate 150+ needle penetrations using an 18G Needle.

IO TIBIA

Intraosseous infusion (IO) is making an injection directly into the bone marrow to create a non-collapsible point of entry for the systemic venous system. In this way fluids and/or medication can be delivered even when intravenous access is not possible. Blood samples can also be collected this way.

The proximal tibia is the preferred site for intraosseous infusion in infants. TruBaby X allows training in IO tibia featuring:

• Features the tibial tuberosity and patella anatomy which facilitates for the identification of the proximal tibia intraosseous needle insertion site.
• Realistic resistance when penetrating the medullary cavity.
• Each IO insert is delivered with pre-filled fluid and facilitates single use with an 18G IO needle.

We also offer a standalone pediatric IO training leg based on a 5-month-old infant.

INFANT URETHRAL CATHETERIZATION (MALE & FEMALE)

A catheter may be used to obtain a sterile urine specimen to diagnose infection in the bladder or kidneys. Some infants may need a urinary catheter because of low urine output, so nursing and medical staff can determine how much fluid is needed.

TruBaby X allows training in infant urethral catheterization featuring:

• Realistic infant anatomy to practice and learn the techniques of catheterization
• An 8F catheter can be inserted into the urethra and into the bladder.
• Upon successful entry, fluid will flow from the catheter.
• Option for interchangeable male and female genitalia

Infant crisis manikin for resuscitation training & more

TruBaby X is ideal for training in a range of lifesaving techniques for infants. Our advanced infant crisis manikin facilitates training in CPR, airway management, needle decompression of pneumothorax, chest drain insertion, IV cannulation, IO tibia, urethral catheterization and more. This model is also a cost-effective pediatric nursing manikin. Our TruMonitor app can be used alongside the infant crisis manikin to integrate clinical decision-making into your training.
