Manikin and Task Trainer Inventory

Explore the variety of high-tech manikins and training equipment available in the Simulation Center at KU School of Medicine-Wichita.

We have a variety of high and low fidelity manikins along with a variety of task trainers. If you’re interested in scheduling time to use any of the equipment, please contact Erin Doyle, Simulation Center program director, at Edoyle3@kumc.edu. Some equipment requires use within the Simulation Center at KU School of Medicine-Wichita, and some items may be appropriate for events in other locations. As we all strive to increase safe patient outcomes, we welcome opportunities to share our training equipment with you.

        Lumbar

        lumbar trainerLumbar puncture trainer features the lumbar vertebrae, iliac crest, spinous process, ligamentum flavum and epidural space, with a fluid-filled compartment for simulated cerebrospinal fluid.

        The lumbar puncture allows the user to penetrate the subarachnoid space and CSF is present when the stylet is removed.

        The trainer has three varieties of ultrasound-compatible replaceable tissues that mirror significant anatomical differences found in obese, geriatric and normal patient populations. Every tissue allows users to experience variances in disc thickness and soft tissue depth on top of the vertebrae.

          Vascular Access

          The Arrow EZ-IO System provides immediate access via the intraosseous route.

          In a medical emergency, you may be ready but unfortunately some veins are not. The Arrow EZ-IO System supports your success by enabling fast5 access when you encounter patients with difficult vascular access.
