Birthing Simulator Advanced
This birthing simulator has been developed for the skill training in normal deliveries, in complicated
deliveries and in obstetric emergencies. Obstetric simulation has proven successful to enhance the
training of delivery skills, following of protocols and reaction in emergency situation.
Birthing complications are in general less likely when an abnormal fetal position or presentation can be
detected before the labor process starts. Using obstetric simulation, trainees will learn how to detect
abnormal positions and presentations, and how to use manual techniques to assist the birthing process.
Training of manual birthing maneuvers (like Leopold, or Pinard’s) must be trained so that correct
measures are applied during complicated deliveries. Furthermore, medical staff must be trained on when
and how to apply obstetric emergency interventions (like a cesarean section).
