The SYN:APSE family is proud to feature a comprehensive array of high and low-fidelity computerized neonatal, infant, pediatric, and adult patient simulators (mannequins). All our high-fidelity simulators speak (or cry), breathe (full complement of breath sounds with variable breathing patterns), and feature a circulatory system (wide array of heart sounds and pulses with variable intensities).

SimNewB

Interactive fully portable, high-fidelity computerized newborn simulator with realistic newborn anatomy and lifelike clinical functionality

  • Full-term, 50th percentile newborn (weighing 7 lb.), allowing application of NRP algorithms
    • SimNewB
  • Realistic neonatal airway designed to permit the use of positive pressure airway devices as well as intubation with an ETT
  • May simulate a limp cyanotic newborn, or a moving, crying, vigorous newborn
  • Patent umbilicus with a life-like pulse that can be assessed, cut and catheterized for IV access
