Simbodies - Advanced Child

Overview

Pediatric emergencies are among the most stressful scenarios a medical professional can encounter. The SIMBODIES® Advanced Child Manikin bridges the gap between high-anxiety clinical situations and hands-on competence. Available in both 5–6 year old and 9–10 year old developmental profiles, these full-body, high-fidelity simulators are meticulously handcrafted in the UK from skin-safe, prosthetic-grade platinum silicone.

Molded with precise human features, correct weight distribution, and realistic skeletal flexibility, these manikins trigger the true psychological realism needed for Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS), trauma triage, and tactical rescue training.

Key Features

• Hyper-Realistic Anatomy: Replicates genuine child skin texture, pigmentation, hand-punched hair, and manually moveable eyelids.

• Interactive Audio Feedback: Features an integrated Bluetooth® speaker embedded into the back of the neck, allowing instructors to stream real-time crying, gasping, or vocal cues to test a trainee's focus.

• Rugged & Washable: The non-porous silicone skin is splashproof, easy to sanitize, and highly durable—perfect for both clean simulation labs and harsh outdoor triage environments.

• Inclusive Training Options: Available in both Male and Female anatomical profiles with multiple ethnic skin tone options (Light, Tan, and Dark).

Pediatric Clinical Capabilities

The Advanced Child model is custom-engineered to support critical pediatric medical procedures without the artificial feel of traditional plastic trainers:

• Advanced Airway Management: Features an anatomically correct mouth, floating jaw, and a human cadaver-casted airway. Trainees can practice head-tilt/chin-lift, jaw-thrust, suctioning, and full intubation protocols (SADs, Laryngeal masks, BVM, and endotracheal tubes).

• Vascular Access (IO Infusion): Includes functional, blood-filled Intraosseous (IO) sites in the tibia and femur to simulate realistic fluid resuscitation pathways.

• Tension Pneumothorax Relief: Accurately placed anatomical landmarks allow for targeted needle decompression in the 2nd intercostal space along the midclavicular line.

• Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR): Features a responsive internal chest structure that provides realistic compliance and chest rise during manual compressions and positive-pressure ventilation.

The SIMBODIES® Difference: Traditional simulators look like plastic dolls, which can lead to artificial training habits. SIMBODIES are uniquely casted from real human features—complete with subtle skin creases, natural flexibility, and lifelike weight. When a team practices extraction or resuscitation on this child model, the visual and tactile feedback forces true clinical precision.
