Question
After I do form is INITIALLY opened, how long is it good for or does the exp date remain the same

Answer

As these items are sterile, it is recommended that they be used immediately.  Once opened, the sterile properties are void and may no longer be safe for use.

If you are opening and applying in a sterile manner, you may be able to keep the opened container for approximately 1 week.

We would suggest consulting the manufacturer of the goods for their recommendation as well.

Answer

This item is the head halter only.  Chin and forehead straps are also included if there is limited occipital shelf.

Question
My company currently has this manikin. However, we were keeping the removable organs and other items in a seperate box. Unfortunately, we have lost this box. Do you have an option to purchase these organs and other parts

Answer

Thank you for speaking with me. As I noted, in order for us to identify if we offer replacement parts, we would need to confirm the brand and model of the manikin you have. If you are unable to confirm this, the interior dimensions of each cavity may be helpful.

You may e-mail or call me with this information, contact details are below.
