Description

What this equipment is and what it's designed for.

LungSim™ is a unique and immersive mechanical ventilator simulator that allows you to interact with your human patient simulator.

This model-based software that, with the stand-alone mode, allows the user to be trained on respiratory mechanisms and, thanks to the simulation mode, to create advanced simulation scenarios on various cases of lung diseases or acute respiratory failure while wirelessly connected to a patient simulator (simulation mode). In addition, it allows instructors to simulate various patient conditions, e.g. chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases or severe respiratory distress syndromes, by simply changing patient parameters and ventilator settings.

Cases and pathologies

The clinical scenarios that can be simulated with this equipment.

GENERAL:

This model-based software allows the user to train in respiratory mechanisms in stand-alone mode and, thanks to the simulation mode, to create advanced simulation scenarios covering various cases of lung disease or acute respiratory failure while wirelessly connected to a patient simulator (simulation mode).
LungSim™ incorporates changes in vital signs, ventilation parameters and many other functions.
The student can develop the ability to interpret the ventilator data, formulate diagnoses and adapt the treatment to the patient's condition.
It also allows instructors to simulate various patient conditions, for example chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or severe respiratory distress syndromes, simply by changing the patient parameters and the ventilator values.

EASY-TO-USE INTERFACE:

LungSim™ consists of a realistic interface for the student with integrated controls that simulate a real ventilator.
In addition, the instructor can view the student's interface on PCs, tablets and smartphones connected over the network, supporting the use of LungSim™ during advanced simulation scenarios.
The user interface incorporates validated layouts to simulate different ventilators and situations.
Through the instructor interface, the instructor also has the possibility of loading pathology presets -such as the different stages of a typical COVID-19 case- or simulating common adverse events that can typically occur during a real ventilation scenario -water in the endotracheal tube, leaks in the tube or in the patient's lungs, a mucus plug or a kink in the tube.

Features and what's included

Features

VENTILATION MODES:

Volume control: through this ventilation mode the user can define the tidal volume delivered to the patient. Airway pressure is the result of lung compliance, airway resistance and inspired volume.
Pressure control: This mode of ventilation allows the user to define the inspiratory pressure delivered to the patient's lungs.
Pressure Assist: Using this assisted ventilation mode, which is triggered by the patient (by pressure or airflow), the user can set the ventilation simulator to provide assistance when the patient exerts respiratory effort. In this ventilation mode, the trigger threshold represents a critical setting; in fact, an incorrect value of this parameter may result in the so-called missing trigger phenomenon.
APRV: This mode of ventilation is a form of CPAP that uses releases from the high pressure level to a low pressure level intermittently, thus allowing the delivery of inverse ratio ventilation. In this mode, the patient has the freedom to perform unassisted spontaneous breaths.

CONTROLLABLE PARAMETERS:

The user interface also allows the user to directly change ventilation settings (such as positive end-expiratory pressure, respiratory rate or tidal volume) and to view on the virtual ventilator monitor various output parameters that are updated in real time (such as fraction of inspired oxygen, inspiratory volume per minute, etc.) and waveforms (such as pressure, volume, pressure and flow): Esp, Expiratory Minute Volume, Inspiratory Minute
Volume, Impulse Pressure Value, the Volume - Pressure Loop, the Flow - Volume Loop, etc.).
The instructor can change the value of parameters such as lung compliance, thoracic compliance, resistances, respiratory muscle effort that describe the patient's characteristics and this will clearly affect the respiratory rate, inspiratory time, oxygen saturation, end tidal CO2 and blood pressure of the high fidelity simulator.
