Half body CPR manikins replicate the head, neck, chest, and upper abdomen of a human body, providing realistic anatomical features for training in CPR and basic life support. These manikins are commonly used in medical schools, emergency response training, and community CPR certification courses.
Key Features:
Realistic Anatomical Landmarks: Includes rib cage, sternum, and xiphoid process to guide proper hand placement.
Compression Feedback: Many models include audible "clickers" or digital indicators to ensure compressions are deep and fast enough (usually 5–6 cm at 100–120 compressions per minute).
Airway Management: The head can typically be tilted to simulate head-tilt/chin-lift or jaw-thrust maneuvers to open the airway.
Mouth-to-Mouth and Mask Ventilation: Allows practice with barrier devices, face shields, or bag valve masks. Some manikins come with disposable lungs or airways for hygiene.
Durability and Portability: Lightweight and often stackable for easy transport and storage. Constructed from materials like PVC or silicone for repeated use.
Training Integration: Compatible with AED trainer pads and devices to simulate real-life resuscitation scenarios.
