Simulation and Training Models for Clinical Skills Instruction
Simulation and training models are the hands-on teaching hardware that nursing programs, medical schools, EMS academies and hospital education departments use to build procedural skills before students work with live patients. The line runs from single-skill task trainers through full-body patient simulators, and includes the consumable replacement parts that keep high-repetition skills stations in service. Products in this line are stocked for simulation centers, skills labs and licensed distributors that supply academic customers.
Simulation and Training Model Types Stocked
- CPR and BLS manikins - Adult, child and infant cardiopulmonary resuscitation trainers for BLS and CPR certification courses. Widely stocked lines include Laerdal Resusci Anne, Little Anne and Resusci Baby, plus feedback-enabled models that report compression depth and rate.
- ALS and full-body patient simulators - Advanced life support and full-body simulators for scenario-based and team training, including Laerdal SimMan and Gaumard HAL platforms. These represent a complete patient and support multiple skills on one model.
- Airway management trainers - Intubation heads and airway task trainers for teaching endotracheal intubation, LMA placement and bag-valve-mask ventilation.
- IV and injection arms - Venipuncture, IV insertion and intramuscular and subcutaneous injection trainers with replaceable skin pads and refillable vein systems from Laerdal, 3B Scientific and Nasco Life/form.
- Catheterization and wound care trainers - Urinary catheterization models, ostomy care trainers and wound care task trainers used to teach dressing changes, packing and stoma management.
- Birthing and OB simulators - Obstetric and neonatal simulators for teaching delivery, postpartum care and newborn resuscitation, including Gaumard birthing and pediatric platforms.
- Anatomical models - 3B Scientific and comparable anatomical models of the heart, skeleton, muscle systems and organs for classroom instruction and patient education.
Simulation Model Format Comparison
| Type | Skills Taught | Representative Brands | Common Use Setting |
|---|---|---|---|
| CPR / BLS manikin | Chest compressions, rescue breathing, AED use | Laerdal Resusci Anne, Little Anne | BLS/CPR certification courses |
| Full-body patient simulator | Assessment, medication, scenario response | Laerdal SimMan, Gaumard HAL | Simulation centers, team training |
| Airway trainer | Intubation, LMA, BVM ventilation | Laerdal, Ambu | EMS and anesthesia training |
| IV / injection arm | Venipuncture, IV insertion, IM/SC injection | 3B Scientific, Nasco Life/form | Nursing skills labs |
| Birthing / OB simulator | Delivery, postpartum, neonatal care | Gaumard, Laerdal | OB and midwifery programs |
| Anatomical model | Structure identification, patient education | 3B Scientific | Classroom instruction |
Consumable Replacement Parts
Simulation stations consume replaceable components on a predictable cycle. Manikin lung bags, airway inserts, IV skin pads, refill blood concentrate, suture and wound pads, and cleaning supplies are stocked as separate line items so a lab can keep trainers in service without replacing the full unit. Standardizing on one brand family across a lab simplifies parts reordering, since skin pads and inserts are model-specific. Materials management teams that automate these consumables through standing orders keep skills stations available across teaching terms.
Simulation and training models are the highest-value line in most academic health-science budgets, combining capital manikin purchases with a steady stream of consumable parts reorders. A single nursing or EMS program may run dozens of identical stations, which makes case pricing and standing orders on replacement pads, lung bags and airway inserts a direct budget factor for lab coordinators and materials management.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a task trainer and a full-body patient simulator?
A task trainer isolates one skill on a partial model, such as an IV arm, an intubation head or a suture pad, and is built for high-repetition practice. A full-body patient simulator represents a complete patient and supports many skills plus scenario-based team training, with responsive vital signs on advanced platforms such as Laerdal SimMan and Gaumard HAL. Labs typically stock multiple task trainers for skills drilling and a smaller number of full-body simulators for integrated scenarios.
Which simulation manikin brands are stocked?
The line includes Laerdal (Resusci Anne, Little Anne, Resusci Baby and SimMan), Gaumard (birthing and pediatric simulators such as the HAL family), 3B Scientific (task trainers and anatomical models) and Nasco Life/form task trainers. Airway trainers from Laerdal and Ambu are also stocked. Availability varies by model and configuration; contact our team to confirm current stock for a specific platform.
Are replacement parts and consumables available for training manikins?
Yes. Manikin lung bags, airway inserts, IV skin pads, refill blood concentrate, replacement wound and suture pads, faces and cleaning supplies are stocked as separate line items. Skin pads and inserts are model-specific, so standardizing on one brand family across a lab simplifies reordering. These consumables are the most common standing order items in a simulation program.
Can nursing schools and hospitals order simulation models in bulk?
Yes. CPR manikins, task trainers, patient simulators and consumable parts are stocked in multi-unit and case quantities for nursing and medical schools, teaching hospitals, EMS academies, simulation centers and licensed distributors. Standing order programs are available for high-turnover consumables such as lung bags, IV skin pads and airway inserts. Contact our procurement team for tiered case pricing and standing order setup on manikins and replacement parts.
What simulation models should be in a skills lab formulary?
A standing skills lab formulary or equipment inventory typically includes adult, child and infant CPR manikins, at least one airway management trainer, IV and injection arms, a urinary catheterization model, a wound care or suturing trainer, and a small set of full-body patient simulators for scenario training. A stock of model-specific consumable parts is kept alongside the trainers.
