Abstract:

A limb hemorrhage trauma simulator provides didactic and hands-on training for the prehospital treatment of a limb trauma victim. The simulator realistically simulates a wounded limb, providing simulated pulse and hemorrhage blood flow. The simulator provides a simulated scenario in which the wound occurred. The student then responds to the scenario by treating the limb via direct pressure, tourniquet, and/or wound analysis. The simulator modifies hemorrhage blood flow and pulse in response to direct or tourniquet pressure applied to the limb. The simulator records the student's actions to provide feedback and grade the student's response.
