A high-fidelity pediatric airway trainer for emergency access and reconstruction, built from CT-derived anatomy.
Improves
Diagnostic accuracy after simulator-based training
3
Peer-reviewed validation studies
2
Anatomy variants: healthy and subglottic stenosis
Front-of-Neck Access (FONA)
Emergency surgical airway technique
Needle Cricothyroidotomy
Percutaneous airway access
Slide Tracheoplasty
Reconstructive airway surgery
Laryngotracheal Reconstruction
Open airway reconstruction
Subglottic Stenosis Assessment
Diagnostic evaluation workflow
Endoscopic Airway Evaluation
Flexible and rigid scope practice
The Pediatric Airway Simulator is a high-fidelity procedural task trainer built for visual and anatomical accuracy, with realistic tissue dynamics. It supports practice of life-saving front-of-neck access (FONA) procedures, including needle cricothyroidotomy, as well as complex airway reconstruction work like slide tracheoplasty and laryngotracheal reconstruction.
Two anatomic variants ship in every kit. The Healthy variant provides normal pediatric tracheal anatomy for baseline technique. The Stenosis variant recreates subglottic narrowing for reconstructive training and diagnostic practice.
Each simulator is produced from CT-derived geometry using a silicone process designed to reproduce the feel of native pediatric airway tissue under a scalpel, needle, and scope.
What's included: One Pediatric Airway Simulator in your selected variant, a mounting stand, and a quick-start card. Ships from Ann Arbor, MI.
Pricing for residency programs and surgical training courses includes volume discounts.
The most-published simulator in the Makemedical line. Three clinical validation studies across emergency access, reconstruction, and fellowship training.
