Blood Pressure Simulator with Speaker System
A simulator for teaching physical assessment, this Blood Pressure Simulator helps resolve the uncertainties
common in teaching students to take blood pressure.
This lifelike simulator allows the presetting of values for both systolic and diastolic pressures. Provides an
excellent means to practice listening to and distinguishing blood pressure sounds prior to actual clinical
experience. It is possible to audibly discern the five Korotkoff phases. Many times when working with a
live subject, pressures are difficult to auscultate, making accurate evaluation of student proficiency almost
impossible, and undermining the student's self-confidence. With this realistic unit, the student can find the preset results and the instructor can unfailingly know if the student has performed the procedure accurately.
The electronically generated sounds are digitally recorded.
The ideal way to broadcast blood pressure sounds to an entire classroom. The instructor can instantly
change Korotkoff phases to compare audible differences, vary pulse rate and volume, control systolic and
diastolic pressures, and demonstrate the phenomenon of auscultatory gap. In addition to group
presentations, the arm is included for individual practice.
