Nasco Healthcare Pericardiocentesis Simulator with Chest Tube and Pneumothorax Features

Train critical, high-risk chest trauma interventions with a realistic simulator designed for pericardiocentesis, chest tube insertion, and tension pneumothorax management. Built for emergency, military, and pre-hospital training, this simulator enables learners to practice lifesaving procedures with accurate anatomical landmarks and fluid dynamics.

The system allows instructors to control fluid color, volume, and viscosity, delivering adaptable scenarios that replicate real-world trauma conditions and decision-making under pressure.

Key Features:

• Perform pericardiocentesis at the left subxiphoid and left fifth intercostal spaces
• Pressurized tension pneumothorax site for needle decompression training
• Functional chest tube insertion site with realistic anatomical layers and rib structure
• Compatible with commercial closed water seal drainage systems
• Adjustable fluid color, volume, and viscosity for scenario customization
• Replaceable surgical pads and components for repeated training use
• Supports ongoing chest tube maintenance and care training
• Durable design for repeated procedural training in classroom or field environments

Training Applications:

• Military and tactical combat casualty care (TCCC)
• Pre-hospital and EMS trauma response
