Birthing Simulator Prompt Flex

The PROMPT Flex Advanced is an anatomically correct birthing simulator allowing for multiple training scenarios. In addition to the functionality of the Standard model (LIM-80100), this version of the PROMPT has a Bluetooth enabled baby that works in conjunction with the Limbs & Things Birthing Simulator Software. The software allows for the running of scenarios with the ability to record actions and interventions made and time to deliver the baby. A simple meter mode in the software allows trainees valuable practice in applying force to the baby outside of the context of a scenario - enabling them to become familiar with the feel of both safe and excessive force before encountering a real obstetric emergency. To further extend use, additional modules for Post-Partum Hemorrhage (LIM-80101), Cesarean-section (LIM-80103) and Cervical Dilation and Effacement (LIM-80102) are available. This product is available in a dark skin-tone (LIM-80208). Light Skin Tone. OVERVIEW
