MAINTENANCE
Assisted Breathing
The Newborn Anne manikin is designed for airway devices
such as face masks, ET tubes (size ID 3.5mm recommended)
and LMAs (size #1 recommended).
The manikin is suitable for use with self-inflating bags and flow-
inflating bags. It is not designed for use with automatic ven-
tilators.
A size 0/1 face mask is recommended for mask-ventilation with
the Newborn Anne manikin. During mask ventilation with ele-
vated airway pressure, air may realistically leak through the es-
ophagus to the abdomen, visibly distending the stomach.
To vent out accumulating air from the stomach, an orogastric
tube (size 8 FR recommended) can be in place simultaneously
with mask ventilation.
Pneumothorax Decompression
The needle decompression procedure can be performed by in-
serting a needle at the left chest side (fourth intercostal space)
into the pleural space. The rib structure can be palpated
through the skin. The Newborn Anne manikin's pleural space is
enclosed so that the needle cannot damage the inner compon-
ents of the manikin.
Chest Compressions
The Newborn Anne manikin has normal visible chest land-
marks (xyphoid process, nipples) and underlying sternum
structure. The Newborn Anne's maximum chest compression
depth is one third of the AP distance.
