Incredible realism and anatomically correct details
We are loyal to the AirSim manikins because they are the most realistic models on the market…The manikins are well suited to our training, the incredible realism and anatomically correct details provide our pediatric anesthesiology and critical care learners an experience similar to a real clinical scenario… The product range is ever expanding and TruCorp continue to produce airway trainers that reflect the real world challenges we face.
Incredibly helpful training our neonatology fellows
The Pierre Robin manikin has been incredibly helpful in training our neonatology fellows how to manage a difficult airway. All of our fellows have benefited greatly from learning to place oral airways, laryngeal mask airways, and endotracheal tubes in this manikin. The anatomy is quite realistic and I have yet to find a better difficult airway training manikin for neonatology.

It’s realistic! Weight, size and movement of a 50th percentile 5-month-old female
Ideal for practising DOP'S, PALS and critical procedures in emergency pediatric medicine.
The model has been designed as fully interchangeable, all the parts are cost effective and can be replaced quickly when required. Initial set-up time is less than 5 mins.
Internal rechargeable battery provides up to 6 hours operation, with optional mains powered connection.
Internal fluid flow for realistic blood flashback during IV cannulations.
When practising CPR, sensor technology will detect the rate and depth of chest compressions and provide visual feedback.
Features the AirSim X airway which provides realistic and durable training and comes with a 5-year warranty. 1-year warranty as standard for all other parts on the TruBaby X
Delivered in durable carry case for easy transportation and safe storage.
Pediatric Airway Management
TruBaby X features the durable and realistic TruCorp airway and facilitates infant airway management training including:
Realistic movement including head tilt, chin lift and jaw thrust
Interchangeable head in case of repairs
Infant CPR Training with visual feedback
CPR techniques differ depending on the age of the recipient. The TruBaby X System allows realistic infant CPR training to improve practitioner confidence and patient safety featuring:
Realistic rib structure with xiphoid process and sternum
Full recommended depth of 1.5 inches can be achieved with full chest recoil
Sensor technology will detect the rate and depth of chest compressions and provide visual feedback on the model
Chest structure has lifelike recoil during compressions, accurate representation of rise and fall during ventilation
Inflatable tongue to simulate normal lingual tension, tongue edema or anaphylactic reaction
Realistic look and feel of tissues representing skin, fat and muscle
Though infants are far smaller than adults, performing high quality chest compressions during CPR is equally important. TruBaby’s lifelike responsiveness to compressions and ventilation allows for realistic practice to improve patient outcomes.
Arterial Blood Gas Measurement
Radial artery pulse can be palpated by activating the normal arterial blood flow mode.
The blood may be collected from the radial artery via needle cannulation in the wrist to simulate ABG results.
Fluids can be withdrawn with realistic blood flashback.
Pediatric Peripheral Venous Cannulation
Peripheral IV (intravenous) catheters can be inserted into peripheral veins to administer treatments, transfusions or IV fluids. TruBaby X facilitates peripheral venous cannulation practice in the arm, hand, or foot.
Peripheral venous cannulation (Hand and Arm)
Contains the dorsal venous arch, cephalic and basilic veins allowing needle cannulation at various locations.
Activation of the normal venous blood flow mode allows fluids to be withdrawn and administered providing realistic blood flashback.
The arm facilitates 300+ needle penetrations using a size 21g needle.
Peripheral venous cannulation (Foot)
Contains the Dorsal venous arch, great and lesser saphenous veins allowing needle cannulation at various locations.
Activation of the normal venous blood flow mode allows fluids to be withdrawn and administered providing realistic blood flashback.
The foot facilitates 300+ needle penetrations using a size 21g needle.
Infant blood vessels are much smaller than in adults and are not well supported by the surrounding soft tissue. The TruBaby X skills trainer has been developed to provide lifelike training to improve patient safety and outcomes.
Infant Lumbar Puncture
Lumbar puncture acquires a sample of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) for testing to confirm or exclude diagnosis of infection (bacterial, viral or fungal).
TruBaby X facilitates lumbar puncture training with:
Ability to maneuver the baby into the required lateral decubitus position or sit upright
Palpable vertebrae landmarks including the iliac crest
Insertion sites include L3-L4 and L4-L5 spine locations
Accurate needle placement allows for positive response and collection of simulated cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)
Fluid is isolated and can be quickly refilled for a unique training experience
Insert can last for 100+ needle penetrations using a 22g needle and is fully interchangeable
PICC Line Insertion
PICC line insertion provides long-term vascular access through a peripherally inserted central catheter.
Complete PICC line procedure including guidewire insertion, dilation, and full cannulation
Peripherally inserted catheterization either through the basilic, brachial, or cephalic veins, all visually located
Fully enclosed fluid management system
Activation of the normal venous blood flow mode allows fluids to be withdrawn and administered providing realistic blood flashback
Speed of blood can be altered to show slow, medium or fast blood flow to increase difficulty - fluids can be withdrawn and administrated in a realistic manner
300+ needle incisions with no leaks using a 21g needle
Ultrasound guided PICC line insertion
Optional arm facilitates ultrasound guided IV and PICC line insertion.
Realisc anatomy illustrating two visible embedded vessels.
Real feel vascular ‘tenting’ upon entry into the vessel.
Facilitates 300+ needle penetrations using a size 21g needle with self-healing/regeneration of the TruUltra material.
Needle thoracentesis for a tension pneumothorax
Tension pneumothorax results when alveoli (air sacs in lungs) rupture and leak air into the pleural space (between lung and chest wall).
TruBaby allows training in needle thoracentesis at the 2nd & 5th intercostal spaces and features:
Realistic rib structures including xiphoid process and clavicle
Palpable landmarks in the 2nd intercoastal space mid clavicular line and the 5th intercostal space mid auxiallary line
Easily interchangeable inserts
Each needle decompression insert facilitates 150+ needle penetrations using a 18g needle
Chest Drain (Air Only)
Palpable landmarks in the 5th intercostal space mid auxiliary line.
Facilitates either the seldinger chest drain insertion technique or the needle thoracentesis approach for the treatment of a pneumothorax.
Each chest drain insert facilitates single use via the Seldinger approach with a size 8F chest tube.
Alternatively, each chest drain insert can facilitate 150+ needle penetrations using a 18G Needle.
IO Tibia
Intraosseous infusion (IO) is making an injection directly into bone marrow to create a non-collapsible point of entry for the systemic venous system. In this way fluids and/or medication can be delivered even when intravenous access is not possible. Blood samples can also be collected this way.
The proximal tibia is the preferred site for intraosseous infusion in infants. TruBaby X allows training in IO tibia featuring:
Features the tibial tuberosity and patella anatomy which facilitates for the identification of the proximal tibia intraosseous needle insertion site.
Realistic resistance when penetrating the medullary cavity.
Each IO insert is delivered with pre-filled fluid and facilitates single use.
Infant Urethral Catheterization
A catheter may be used to obtain a sterile urine specimen to diagnose infection in the bladder or kidneys. Some infants may need a urinary catheter because of low urine output, so nursing and medical staff can determine how much fluid is needed.
TruBaby X allows training in female infant urethral catheterization featuring:
Realistic female infant anatomy to practice and learn the techniques of catheterization
A catheter can be inserted into the urethra and into the bladder.
Upon successful entry fluid will flow from the catheter.
