Question
How long does it take to heat How long will it stay heated? Is a cover available? Is there tie or velcro closure? Is it compartmentalized to prevent beads from transferring side to side? How much does it weigh? What is the one-side heating about?

Answer

Heating time is 1 minute 30 seconds initially, if it is not warm enough, it may be heated in addittional 30 second increments.

The unit may stay heated approximately 15 to 20 minutes.

Covers are available for purchase.

The closure is a tie closure located approximately 1-2 inches from each end.

The unit is compartmentalized so that beads will not move anywhere but within their compartment.

The unit weight is approximately 3 pounds.

The one-sided heating is that the material only allows moist heat to radiate from the side of the wrap.

Question
Is this suitable for decon situations

Answer

Thank you for your inquiry.  It is not recommended that this cot be used for a decon situation.

Equipment for decon is specialized.  Patients or those to be decontaminated are usually brought to an area where portable facilities are set up.  If on a cot, they are transferred to a spineboard and put on a roller system so they can be “decon’d”.  Ambulatory patients or victims usually pass through special deluge showers. 

The bottom line, cots are not normally used for this.  While our cots are made with aluminum, vinyl, etc., there could be damage to the nuts/bolts and possibly the bearings in the wheels, so we advise against use for decontamination purposes.

Question
I am looking for a manikin that can be put into the lithotomy position. can this manikin be put into that position with the use of stirrups

Answer
This manikin does have hinged knees and is mobile at the hip, however the positioning may not be true to the lithotomy position.  Did you need the manikin/simulator to have any specific pelvic features for procedural training, or will you more-so be using this manikin for positioning purposes only?
