PAT^® the Pediatric Auscultation Trainer, Light

Pediatric growth and developmental issues require careful attention to recognize the signs and sounds associated with pediatric specific disorders. PAT^® is the perfect torso manikin for healthcare simulation and teaching the critical skill of pediatric auscultation.

The manikin simulates the anatomy of a child with correct pediatric auscultation sites and has been developed to be easy to operate. Out of the box, PAT^® can be connected and set to teach the desired cardiac, lung or bowel sounds. Cardionics has designed PAT^® to create a comprehensive auscultation training experience while completely eliminating the frustration of incorporating complicated educational tools in the classroom. Apart from teaching auscultation skills to the entire class, students can also practice their hands-on skills in self-study with the PAT^® torso without supervision.
