Erler-Zimmer Tracheostomy Care Simulator
A tracheostomy is a medical procedure that is performed to help a patient breathe when an obstruction prevents them from doing so normally. The Erler-Zimmer Tracheostomy Care Simulator offers a safe and non-invasive way for trainee medical staff to learn this procedure, as well as the necessary follow-up care procedures. With a realistic and anatomically accurate design, this manikin enables comprehensive training and demonstrations.
