Comprehensive Tourniquet Application Training Simulator

The tourniquet application training simulator is an essential tool that allows users to master the critical skill of correctly applying a tourniquet to stop bleeding in emergency situations. The simulator enables the monitoring of the correct execution of this skill.

The simulator is equipped with a shoulder brace (universal size), made of special durable fabric. Inside the pocket, there is a silicone module with a vessel, which is connected to wound simulators via connectors. When the tourniquet is properly applied, the blood simulator stops flowing from the wound simulators. The brace includes a separate detachable part for the forearm. Both parts of the brace have Velcro straps that allow for the attachment of various simulators from the "STEEPEN" company, such as a broken humerus fracture simulator, a lacerated wound simulator with blood simulation, and more.

Advantages:

• Extends the lifespan of simulators and individual modules, as the brace's fabric is smooth and ensures easy sliding of the tourniquet during use.
• Reduces pain when applying the tourniquet.
• Easy to clean.
• Designed to fit a universal size.
• Can be configured for right or left hand.
• Simple to use.
