Luna’s TrueClot® Simulated Hemostatic Gauze works with TrueClot® Blood Simulant to create realistic simulated blood clots during simulation of wound packing for hemorrhage control. The simulated gauze is packaged in a heat-sealed, white plastic pouch and is a close mimic of Z-Medica’s QuikClot® and Combat Gauze® products. Each simulated gauze package contains one 3 inch wide strip of Z-folded  simulated gauze. 4 ft length.

TrueClot® Simulated Hemostatic Gauze is for simulation training only. 

It is not sterile and is not intended for medical use.

Understanding the need and importance of the form, fit, and function of training devices, the HyFin Chest Seal Trainer provides a cost-effective solution to equip providers with the best training alternative, other than using the actual device, for both vented and occlusive chest seals. Specifically designed to increase user familiarity, the HyFin Chest Seal Trainer utilises the same template as the HyFin Vent Chest Seal Twin Pack but uses a less aggressive adhesive designed for effective chest seal application on both human skin and a training manikin. This allows for training of proper placement of not only the chest seal itself but also of the vent over a simulated wound.

Packaged in the same rugged, compact foil pouch, the HyFin Chest Seal Trainer also features a unique perforated package that allows the student to open only one chest seal if needed. Made in America and 100% latex free, NAR packages each chest seal using its signature Red Tip Technology red tear notches in a rugged, easy-to-open, foil pouch to ensure high-quality performance.

Features:

• Cost effective training solution
• Unique adhesive gel formulation designed not to damage manikins or leave behind excessive adhesive residue
• Designed for optimal training in the same form and function as the HyFin Chest Seal
• Each seal also comes with a gauze pad to wipe the wound surface prior to chest seal application as needed

Non-Sterile Olaes Training Bandage.

This is a non-sterile version of the Olaes Modular Bandage for training use only.

Luna's TrueClot Wound Packing Task Trainers are an excellent way to provide realistic low-cost and repetitive training in wound packing and the use of advanced hemostatic gauzes (such as QuikClot). The task trainers have very realistic outer anatomy and wound beds with hidden bleed points. Two different wound beds are available: a laceration(stab wound) and a large calibre gunshot wound (GSW). The GSW contains a bony landmark that allows instruction to pack to the bone.

The task trainers are made from sturdy silicone, require no batteries or external power, have no moving parts and can be used over and over again. A reinforced tubing mount prevents pullout of the tubing. A one-way valve ensures that the TrueClot Blood Simulant does not back flow into the 1-litre squeeze bottle during use. TrueClot Blood Simulant will wash easily from the trainer with water even if the blood simulant has dried.

All TrueClot Wound Packing Task Trainers come with:

• A packet of TrueClot Blood Simulant Concentrate
• 10 packs of TrueClot Simulated Hemostatic Gauze
• 1L Blood Squeeze Bottle
• Wound Packing Trainer

Due to higher than average volumes, the current lead time on the PCT3 trainer is 2-3 weeks from time of order.

The fully automatic HeartSine Samaritan 500P PAD Trainer includes remote and soft carry case.

The HeartSine Samaritan 500P trainer is ideal for use by both training organisations for CPR and defibrillator training as well as by organisations that have adopted the Samaritan 500P defibrillator and would like a training device of their own. With remote control for simple operation of CPR prompts, as well as the most inexpensive replacement training pads – don’t be caught out by alternatives that cost you a lot in the long term in consumables.

The design of the samaritan PAD Trainer mirrors the live device in order to ensure greater user retention and system familiarity. As such, the PAD Trainer is easy to use, allowing the trainer the maximum time possible to focus on the learning needs of the group. The Trainer, which is compatible with any CPR manikin system, provides six pre-recorded rescue training scenarios without delivering an actual shock.

Realistic Training Demonstration and Superior Retention. Voice and visual prompts and CPR coaching match those of the HeartSine samaritan PAD defibrillator. Likewise, size and shape are the same; however, unique labeling and membrane color prevent inadvertent use in an actual emergency.

CPR Advisor. The samaritan PAD 500P Trainer includes CPR Advisor which uses an Impedance Cardiogram (ICG) to assess the effectiveness of the CPR and give the rescuer feedback on compressions based on actual cardiac output: “Push Harder,” “Push Faster,” “Push Slower” or reassurance that they are performing “Good Compressions.” (Available on Samaritan PAD 500P Trainer.)

Appropriate for All Skill Levels. The Trainer can be used by businesses to train employee first responders on the use of the HeartSine samaritan PAD. In addition, it meets the needs of professional trainers, either teaching first-time lay users or refreshing experienced emergency responders.

Cost-Effective. The Trainer is powered by a rechargeable battery. Electrode pads are cost-effective and reusable, and mimic the Pad-Pak™ battery/pad cartridge unique to the HeartSine samaritan PAD defibrillator.

Proper tourniquet placement and application are crucial to effective hemorrhage control.  The TrueClot^® Tourniquet Application Trainer is a wearable device that allows full application of a tourniquet for training purposes. Training blood can be pumped through the device to simulate hemorrhage and when a tourniquet is properly applied bleeding is stopped. The padded arm cuff reduces pinching and pain and allows for proper application of a tourniquet during classroom or scenario training.  The trainer can be worn under a uniform or large t-shirt.

Tourniquet Application Trainer features:

• Durable ballistic nylon construction
• Easy to clean and air dry
• Apply tourniquet high and tight or 2″ – 3″ above the wound
• Heavy duty padding to reduce pinching and pain
• Bleeding wound with simulated vessel

The Tourniquet Application Trainer comes with a 1 Litre squeeze bottle for training blood, a quick disconnect fitting and a plastic storage case.  The trainer is for left arm fitment only.

Chest seal application is a critical bleeding control intervention. The TrueClot^® Chest Seal Application Trainer is a task trainer designed to teach this critical skill in both table top/classroom and wearable/scenario settings.

As a table top trainer, the simulated entry and exit wounds will bleed and bubble mimicking tension pneumothorax indications.  A real chest seal is applied to the trainer so students can practice with the seal they use in the field while learning proper placement techniques.  The wound trainer actively bleeds and simulates both exhalation and inhalation demonstrating the sealing and venting action of various chest seal products.   TrueClot’s proprietary design and materials allow chest seals to be removed and reused multiple times to reduce training costs.

When students are ready for scenario training, the same table top wounds can be adhered to and worn on the included Velcro MOLLE vest.  Students are taught to manage a moving patient while applying chest seals using skills learned during table top training.  The unique design allows instructors to place entry and exit wounds in various locations on the torso.  The Chest Seal Application Trainer includes a reservoir for simulated blood, tubing and a bulb pump for active bleeding simulation during wearable, scenario training.  The reservoir/pump system is stored inside the vest and tubing is secured inside the MOLLE loop to prevent tangles and increase realism.

Chest Seal Application Trainer features:

• Durable simulated wounds and Velcro MOLLE vest
• Easy to clean and air dry
• Apply and reuse real chest seals for realistic training
• Simulated bubbling, breathing and chest seal venting/sealing
• Wearable entry and exit wounds with active bleeding for scenarios

The Chest Seal Application Trainer comes with entry and exit wound models, a squeeze bottle for table top training, Velcro MOLLE vest, simulated blood reservoir, bulb pump and tubing with quick connectors for wearable/scenario training.

TrueClot Chest Seal Application Trainer (item # 5214) – Dark or Light flesh tones available

All TrueClot task trainers are latex-free.

The TraumaSim Haemostatic Clotting Trainers allows users to pack realistic bleeding wounds to practice the vital skill of haemostatic dressing application. Life-cast silicone skin looks and feels real adding realism to improve trainee skill and confidence. These units have ability for simulated blood flowing from the wound using a pump bottle via tubing. 

This Laceration model much closer simulates the shape and feel of a real limb and/or tissue, making it more realistic when used in training simulations, yet is can still be used on a bench for repetitive packing training.

TraumaSims task trainers allow students to train repeatedly in wound packing and haemostatic dressing techniques via a sturdy, realistic silicone base with tubing for bleeding capability. This is a Laceration Wound with the blood source controlled via a syringe. It is low-cost but critical training aid for any professional delivering life saving first aid training. 

These simple trainers are quick to refresh and refill allowing for repetitive training or cycling through large groups easily.

Available in both laceration and gunshot versions so you can get the trainer you need for your training requirements.

Proper junctional wound packing is a critical bleeding control skill. The TrueClot Inguinal Packing Trainer is a wearable training aid that simulates a junctional hemorrhage that cannot be treated with a tourniquet and teaches advanced wound packing skills. The trainer can be placed on a manikin or worn by an actor for a higher level of realism.

Training blood is pumped through the device to simulate hemorrhage and the large gunshot wound cavity can be packed with a full 12ft. x 3in. strip of simulated hemostatic dressing. Proper wound packing and compression will cause hemorrhaging to stop. When fitted on a manikin a junctional tourniquet may also be applied.

The trainer can be worn under or on top of clothing. For the highest level of realism use TrueClot Blood Simulant and Simulated Hemostatic Gauze for realistic blood clotting simulation. The trainer is for right side inguinal area fitment only.
