Embodiment Construction

[0060] When the terms "on, above" and "below, below" are used in the following orientation, they should be read in conjunction with the drawings, in which the simulated patient device is depicted as lying supine. Other directional terms used are "down" and "up". These involved mannequins were in an upright position. The use of these terms is purely functional and serves to simplify the description of the invention and in no way imposes any limitations on the circumstances in which the invention can be applied.

[0061] FIG. 1 is a longitudinal section through a patient simulator, showing parts of a head 1 and a torso 2 . The torso 2 includes the chest skin 3 . Under the chest skin is the skeleton 4 representing the ribs and sternum. Below the framework is the first plate 5, which may also be called the upper plate. Below the plate 5 are one or preferably two lungs 6, one to the right and one to the left of the rib cage. Below the lungs 6 is a second or lower plate 7 .

Abstract

The invention provides a chest retraction simulating device, comprising a torso which contains a chest skin, and chest skin pulling means for pulling the chest skin downward in an area where such retractions occur. The invetnion also relates to a medical patient simulator comprising the chest retraction simulating device, a muscle movement simulating device and / or a brain pressure increasing device. The invention also relates to a method for chest retraction simulation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a medical simulated patient device, in particular to a medical simulated patient device for simulating infants and their physiological reactions. Background technique [0002] One aspect of the present invention is backgrounded from a market need for simulation of a breathing pattern called subcostal retraction, thereby providing a basis for diagnosing breathing problems in patients. Currently, there are no existing patient simulators that can simulate this particular breathing pattern. [0003] Retraction of the chest occurs when a lot of force is used to move air through the lungs when breathing is difficult due to obstruction of the airways or severe asthma. This retraction is seen as a cavity in the diaphragm (the skin is "sucked" in between the ribs and the lower edge of the ribs, below the sternum). Contents of the invention [0004] The present invention provides a device for simulating chest retraction, comprising a...
