Its realism challenges the student to overcome stress and intervene quickly to stop the bleeding and save the patient's life.The Postpartum Treatment Station System (ETP) simulates a patient wuth an acute bleeding after a normal delivery. A fluid pump is activated causing intense and continuous bleeding. The purpose of training is to find the source of the bleeding, as well as to take the appropriate conduits for the identified lesion.
The ETP model can be customized to identify the following diagnoses:
• Uterine cervix rupture
• Bladder rupture
• Vaginal laceration and rupture
• Uterine rupture
• Retention of cotyledons and / or placenta.
At the end, it’s possible to quantify the lost blood volume, thus enabling to understand the success of the intervention.
