Adam,Rouilly  /  Products  /  Prompt Flex Birthing Simulator – Advanced, Light
Skills and Features

Skills

  • Training and practice in the following types of birth:
    • Normal
    • Vaginal breech birth
    • Shoulder dystocia with force feedback – force feedback is unique to this model and not available on the PROMPT Flex Standard
    • Vaginal assisted (forceps and vacuum devices)
    • Third stage of labour
    • Cord prolapse
    • Urinary catheter placement
    • IM injection Communication and teamwork skills

Features

  • Anatomically correct, the birthing mother and baby are designed to allow for multiple true-to-life training scenarios
  • In addition to the Standard PROMPT Flex’s functionality, the baby included with this model is equipped with Force Monitoring software
  • During labour and delivery, force exerted on the baby can result in brachial plexus injury during shoulder dystocia
  • The Force Monitoring Baby measures the force applied by trainees during drills
  • Using the birthing simulator’s software, instructors can record actions taken, interventions made, and the length of time to deliver the baby, providing insights into students’ skills
  • Meter Mode in the Force Monitoring software allows trainees valuable practice, giving familiarity with the feel of safe and excessive force before encountering a real obstetric emergency
  • Software is compatible with Windows, Mac, iOS and Andriod, and can be run on tablets as well as PCs
  • User definable text in the software allows for intervention and birthing scenario names to be edited into the user’s native language
  • The PROMPT Flex range offers multiple scenarios that can include patient simulation training
  • PROMPT Flex’s modular design allows for multiple training scenarios that you can tailor to your specific course needs
  • Additional modules include:
    • Postpartum Hemorrhage (PPH)
    • Enhanced C-Section
    • Cervical Dilatation & Effacement (CD&E)
    • Cervical Cerclage
    • Lower Legs
    • Compression Suture Uterus
  • Baby model has improved shoulder and hip joints
  • Bluetooth enabled baby allows for Force Monitoring with a scenario-based software (downloadable from the website)
  • Drills run with the software can be recorded for later review
  • Comes with wheeled carry case for safe storage and transportation
  • The PROMPT Flex Range can offer a complete training solution for birth management
  • Gynaecoid shape pelvis with soft, flexible birth canal, dilatable cervix and pelvic floor musculature provides realism in normal and complicated births
  • Baby model represents a full term infant in weight and size, allowing for realistic handling
  • Force Monitoring software allows trainees to accurately learn the safe amount of force that can be administered during delivery
    Birthing Mother:

    • Stand alone or hybrid use, 3 straps are supplied to secure PROMPT simulator for bench top or bed mounting
    • Articulated thighs help to demonstrate Gaskin and McRobert’s procedures
    • Handle on the base of the mannikin for operator use during labor simulation
    • Can be used with additional modules to extend training simulations
  • Anatomy of the PROMPT Birthing Mother:
    • Birth canal and cervix
    • Ischial spines and pubic bone
    • Gynaecoid pelvis
    • Articulating Thighs, with injection pad
    • Abdomen
  • Baby:
    • Improved articulation of the joints offers enhanced realism for difficult birthing scenarios, such as shoulder dystocia
  • Anatomy of the PROMPT Baby:
    • Umbilical cord and placenta (detachable)
    • Clavicles
    • Suture lines and fontanelles

Objective: To compare the management of neonatal injury associated with shoulder dystocia before and after introduction of mandatory should dystocia simulation training.

Conclusion: The introduction of shoulder dystocia training for all maternity staff was associated with improved management and neonatal outcomes of births complicated by shoulder dystocia.
