• User Guide

• Three independently controlled bleeding wounds: Chest gunshot entry, sub-diaphragmatic stab, and large open femoral wound — covering thoracic, abdominal, and junctional haemorrhage management from a single training platform.
• Independent syringe control per wound: Each wound is controlled separately via a 50 ml syringe — instructors can run single-wound, multi-wound, or progressive bleeding scenarios with precise control over each site.
• Anatomically accurate lifecast torso: Realistic surface detail for correct wound landmark identification and intervention positioning across all three wound sites.
• Covers three distinct haemorrhage control techniques: Thoracic wound management, complex abdominal wound management, and junctional femoral haemorrhage control — each requiring a different clinical approach.
• Developed with Queensland Police Service: Originally built for Tactical First Aid training — programs that have contributed to real-world life-saving outcomes and received a Global Policing Award in London.
• Compatible with SimClot and Training Gauze: Designed for use with TraumaSim haemostatic training products for complete wound packing and dressing application practice.
• Complete system included: Three full wound systems with syringes, connectors, tubing, and 500 ml stage blood.
• Durable and reusable: Washable lifecast construction built for high-volume repeated training use.
• 11 skin tones available: Commonly requested tones held in stock; others manufactured to order.

What wounds does this trainer include and why were they chosen?
Three wounds: a chest gunshot entry wound, a sub-diaphragmatic stab wound, and a large open femoral wound. Each represents a distinct anatomical region and a distinct haemorrhage control challenge — thoracic penetrating trauma, complex upper abdominal trauma with potential thoracic involvement, and junctional femoral haemorrhage where tourniquet application is not effective. Together they cover the highest-consequence haemorrhage scenarios a first responder or tactical medic is likely to encounter.

How does the independent bleeding control work?
Each wound is connected to its own 50 ml syringe via tubing and a 6 mm connector. Instructors control each wound's bleeding intensity separately by varying syringe pressure. This allows single-wound focused training, simultaneous multi-wound scenarios, and progressive scenarios where additional wounds are activated as the trainee manages previous sites — simulating the complexity of real multi-system trauma casualties.

What is the sub-diaphragmatic stab wound?
A penetrating stab wound in the upper abdominal region beneath the diaphragm — a clinically complex injury location where abdominal organ involvement and potential thoracic implications both need to be assessed. This wound type requires a different management approach from a standard lower abdominal wound and develops the broader anatomical assessment thinking that complex torso injuries demand.

Why is the femoral wound significant?
The large open femoral wound is positioned in the groin region where tourniquet application is not effective — making wound packing and direct pressure the primary haemorrhage control interventions. This is a junctional haemorrhage scenario, and managing it correctly requires the same technique set as the HCT Thigh trainer — but in the context of a multi-wound casualty rather than an isolated limb wound.

What is the operational background of this trainer?
The Lifecast Male Torso with Bleeding Wounds was originally developed in collaboration with the Queensland Police Service for Tactical First Aid training programs. Those programs have contributed to documented real-world life-saving outcomes and received international recognition including a Global Policing Award in London — giving this trainer a level of operational credibility that few training aids carry.

Can this be used with SimClot and Training Gauze?
Yes. TraumaSim recommends using this trainer alongside SimClot and Training Gauze for complete haemostatic dressing application practice — covering the full wound packing intervention sequence across all three wound sites.

What simulated blood should I use?
TraumaSim recommends Ben Nye Stage Blood diluted at 1 part blood to 3 parts water. A 500 ml bottle is included with the kit.

Is it reusable?
Yes. The lifecast torso is washable and designed for repeated high-volume use. Rinse thoroughly after each session — including all tubing — allow to dry completely, and store in the included carry bag.

What skin tones are available?
11 tones are available: 00 Porcelain, 01 Light, 02 Medium, 03 Olive, 04 Medium Olive, 05 Rosy, 06 Warm Rosy, 07 Warm Tan, 08 Tan, 09 Dark Tan, and 10 Dark. Commonly requested tones are held in standard stock. Other tones are manufactured to order — contact TacMed Australia before placing your order to confirm availability and lead times.

What are the dimensions and weight?
The trainer measures 65 cm x 55 cm x 7 cm and weighs 7 kg.

Who is this suited to?
Military medical training programs, tactical law enforcement, TCCC and TECC instructors, Queensland Police Service and allied agencies, pre-hospital care educators, emergency services training facilities, and any program delivering advanced multi-wound haemorrhage control training where anatomical realism and independent wound control are training priorities.
