This chest drain trainer allows for the practice of thoracostomy, thoracentesis, and needle decompression. It includes many anatomical landmarks, including manubriosternal joint, clavicles, ribs, pectoralis major and latissi-mus dorsi. The trainer is compatible with ultrasound with internal anatomy of diaphragmatic structures and col-lapsed lung. It is certified to be used with ATLS courses.
The Zoll R-Series Plus defibrillator is designed to improve outcomes of cardiac arrest by providing new features that will help to deliver the best possible CPR, defibrillation, and pacing treatments. This defibrillator offers live feedback on CPR quality, including rate, depth, and release. There is also a second ECG waveform displayed on the monitor that filters out any artifact from compressions. This allows the underlying rhythm to be visible during CPR and a reduction in pauses for rhythm analysis.
