User Guide) as this may damage the Patient
Simulator and its components.
• Do not introduce humidified air into the
system during ventilation.
• Never perform mouth-to-mouth or mouth-
to-nose rescue breathing on the patient
simulator. The Patient Simulator's airways are
not designed for cleaning or disinfection.

Defibrillation Hazards
SimMan allows for defibrillation in accordance
with 2015 international guidelines for CPR.
A conventional defibrillator may be used on
the SimMan. During live defibrillation, the
defibrillator and Patient Simulator may present
a shock hazard. All standard safety precautions
must be taken when using a defibrillator on
the Patient Simulator. For more information,
consult your defibrillator's User Guide.
The ECG connectors are designed exclusively
for ECG monitoring and must not be used for
defibrillation. Defibrillation on the ECG
connectors will damage the internal
electronics of the Patient Simulator and may
cause personal injury.
