The New Zealand Resuscitation Council (NZRC) recommendations for Level 4 cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) on a child have been incorporated into the our Integrated Simulator.
Learn how to perform CPR on a child by seamlessly moving between the learning media; text, video, anatomy and simulator. In the simulator, learn how to perform basic life support (BLS) on a child in learn mode or test yourself in test mode by choosing medical tools with your computer mice and performing CPR in a virtual environment. In test mode you may also choose multi-choice questions to test your understanding. Examine your performance in either mode in your personalized logbook and print this record for your own documentation.
Read a concise step-by-step description of the fundamentals of CPR specifically for a child; mouth-to-mouth, mouth-to-nose, mouth-to-mask, or bag-mask breathing using the “E-C” technique or two-handed “E-C” technique with one or two rescuers respectively. Watch a video of a scenario using a child performed by an expert and observe the important elements being demonstrated. Rotate or zoom the applied anatomy of the cardiopulmonary systems to highlight the vital organs.
Simulate the essential steps of CPR in an exciting and enjoyable interaction. Perform the head-chin tilt maneuver and check for breathing and circulation. Learn the correct rate, depth and positioning for chest compressions in a child by visualizing a cross section of the chest being compressed and released during a segment of a chest compression cycle. Use an automated electrical defibrillator to administer an electric shock in ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia.
