Steepen Open Humerus Fracture Simulator

A professional training manikin from the Steepen brand, designed for demonstrating and practicing first aid skills for open humerus fractures. This simulator reproduces the clinical picture of an open fracture with a high level of realism, allowing users to practice a sequence of actions in conditions as close to real as possible, as well as learn to assess the victim's condition, stop bleeding, and properly immobilize the affected limb.

Key Features

1. Wound at the fracture site:
   • Simulated open wound surfaces with realistic texture, allowing clear visualization of the injury site.
   • Accurately reproduced wound and tissue contours, which facilitates learning proper treatment and bleeding control.
2. Bone fragments in the wound:
   • Inserted plastic bone fragments that visually and tactilely resemble real fragments.
   • Clear visibility of fragments allows practicing techniques for initial treatment and removal of foreign bodies in training scenarios.
3. Signs of traumatic soft tissue damage:
   • The manikin reproduces swelling, redness, and other characteristic manifestations of trauma around the wound, facilitating understanding of injury mechanisms and treatment methods.
4. Convenient limb attachment:
   • A special Velcro fastener ensures secure attachment of the simulator to the arm, allowing for modeling various positions during training and transport.

Parameters

• Material - silicone, bones - plastic, Velcro fabric
• Silicone elasticity - 5 Shore
• Color - flesh
• Weight - 0.45 kg
• Dimensions - 210 x 210 mm

Skills Practiced

1. First aid for open fractures:
   • Assessing the victim's condition in case of an open fracture, determining priority actions.
   • First aid algorithm: applying sterile dressings, bleeding control, stabilizing bone fragments.
2. Bleeding control:
   • Using bandages and special dressings for effective bleeding control.
   • Demonstrating and practicing various methods of bleeding control in simulated conditions.
3. Fixation and immobilization:
   • Training methods for stabilizing the injured limb using splints and immobilization materials.
   • Proper splint application to reduce pain and prevent further damage.
4. Wound disinfection and treatment:
   • Practicing techniques for cleaning and disinfecting the wound surface, preparing for dressing application, and preventing infections.
5. Preparation for transport:
   • Skills for preparing the victim for safe transport to a medical facility, considering immobilization and fixation.
   • Checking for necessary materials and their correct application during transport.
6. Teamwork and communication:
   • Practicing coordinated actions within a medical team during emergency interventions.
   • Developing effective communication skills and role distribution in stressful situations.

The Steepen Open Humerus Fracture Simulator will be a useful tool for tactical medicine training courses, for instructors and training centers aiming to provide students with realistic practical skills. Its compact dimensions of 210 x 210 mm and weight of 0.45 kg make it convenient for demonstrations and transport, while the materials — silicone combined with plastic bones and Velcro fastening — ensure the model's durability and realism.
