Product Description



The Tension Pneumothorax Simulator is designed to provide realistic training for the emergency procedure of relieving a tension pneumothorax. This model allows medical personnel to practise proper needle insertion techniques to enable built-up air pressure to escape from the thorax.

The simulator accepts both needle decompression and thoracotomy in the second intercostal space at the midclavicular line or the fifth intercostal space at the midaxillary line, ensuring accurate anatomical practice. Constructed with a lifelike rib cage and soft skin for realism, it includes a replaceable two-piece pleural chamber for repeated use. Water-resistant and durable, this trainer is ideal for trauma and emergency care courses.
