Overview

The Patient Simulator Designed To Meet Your Training Needs.
An upgraded version of our popular DataSim 6000 model, the DataSim 6100 offers six channels for generating ECG arrhythmias, blood pressure, and respiration. New features include a standard defib training capability, along with a battery that’s now built right into the unit itself. All control keys and display prompts can be found on DataSim’s convenient, hand-held keypad, which is connected to the unit with a flexible, 20’ telephone-style cord that gives you exceptional range of motion.

Critical Care Nurses, ACLS program instructors, and other clinical educators can use DataSim 6100 to generate an extensive range of simulations, from a simple normal sinus rhythm to a complex Swan-Ganz catheter insertion. In any of the following training situations, this instrument proves a useful, comprehensive tool.

ACLS Testing and DEFIB Training
By interfacing the DataSim 6100 to an Arrhythmia AnneÔ , Resusci-AnneÔ , or Chris CleanÔ chest torso, you can teach students the correct way to defibrillate a patient, plus the desired effect on ECG and BP activity. When you’re ready to begin this training scenario, DataSim automatically inserts a DEFIB artifact. If the student properly defibrillates, the artifact is followed by the instructor’s preselected rhythm representing patient recovery. DataSim also enables you to teach DEFIB paddle monitoring by simulating ECG activity via the manikin connection.

BP and Arrhythmia Recognition
Challenge your students with the most realistic pressure and arrhythmia simulations available. Because DataSim’s hemodynamic waveforms are physiologically synchronized, students learn to identify the blood pressures and arrhythmias they’ll see on the job every day. To provide even more comprehensive training, you can also generate potentially complex simulations with ease, including a Swan-Ganz catheter insertion and manual PAC and PVC insertions.

Artifact Recognition
The DataSim 6100 gives you an ideal way to help students differentiate artifact from physiologically meaningful waveforms. Using the DataSim’s ARTIFACT key, you can select a wide range of "real world" ECG, Pressure, and Respiration artifacts. Simulations include:

» ECG Artifact:
    - Somatic Muscle (5 levels)
    - 60 Cycle (3 levels)
    - Baseline (3 levels)
    - Defibrillation, CPR

» Pressure Artifact:
    - Respiration
    - Catheter Whip
    - Resonance
    - Damping

» Respiration Artifact:
    - ECG Coincidence

Expanding Your Waveform Selections
An extensive range of optional personality modules is available to expand the DataSim 6100’s waveform selections. Each personality module plugs into the unit’s front panel and features a variety of specialty waveforms and waveform sequences.

These include:
» Intra-Aortic Balloon Assist
» Pediatric ECG
» Intra-Cranial Pressures
» Advanced Pacemaker
» MCL1 Atrials
» MCL1 Blocks
» MCL1 Ectopy/Aberrancy
» Normal/Diseased Left Heart
» 12-Lead ECG (Normal/Infarct)
» ST Segments
» Cardiac Output
» Capnography (CO2)
» Interactive IABP

Special Features For Specialized Needs
DataSim 6100 meets the challenge of your specialized training applications using personality modules for the following scenarios:

» Interactive IABP
     - To help students practice setting inflation/deflation timings, DataSim 6100 can be interfaced with all Kontron, Datascope, and Aries balloon pumps. DataSim responds to the inflation/ deflation timing of the balloon pump by changing the timing and shape of augmented arterial pressures.


» Cardiac Output
     - Simulate normal and abnormal thermal dilution curves by connecting the DataSim 6100 to any cardiac output computer which accepts the Edwards 3-pin catheters.


» PALS Training
     - An optional Pediatric ECG personality module can be used with the DEFIB training feature during Pediatric (PALS) training workshops.

The Video Adapter Training Accessory Makes Your Training More Effective Than Ever
Our Video Adapter lets you display ECG and BP waveforms generated by DataSim on any standard TV set. The enlarged display format increases both the visibility and comfort level of your class, while the unit itself offers a variety of instructional tools designed to assist you.
