Spontaneous breathing
The SimNewB™ manikin's breathing activity can be assessed
from visible chest movement, from vocal sounds (grunting, cry-
ing, etc) and from breath sounds audible with a stethoscope.
The manikin’s spontaneous breathing can be initiated or stop-
ped by the instructor. The breathing rate can be set to 0-100
breaths per minute, with 40 breaths per minute as the default
setting.
The vocal and breath sounds are listed in the Detail
Specifications section, page 36.
When connected to a CO

source, the SimNewB manikin can
expire CO

Remote Control or the PC Software.

cyanosis function, which changes the color of the face surroun-
ding the lips to blue.
The brightness can be controlled from the Remote Control.
Assisted breathing

face masks, ET tubes (size ID 3.5mm recommended) and LMAs
(size 1 recommended).
The manikin is suitable for use with self-inflating bags and flow-
inflating bags. It is not designed for use with automatic ventila-
tors.
