Statement of Work

SimMan 3G

June 12, 2018

Background:

The use of simulation as an effective learning modality has been well established in the literature. High fidelity mannequins provide a level of realism that allows the learner to suspend disbelief and create a realistic setting for learners to demonstrate and practice skills in a safe learning environment. Training healthcare providers to respond to high risk situations in a safe learning environment is crucial to patient outcomes and safety. While mannequins can t replace hands on learning with real patients, simulation training provides a safe environment where learning can occur through making mistakes while not putting patients at risk.

Scope:

The SimMan 3G was chosen based upon its historical use at VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System, functionality, and ease of use. This mannequin will replace a SimMan purchased in 2011 that is nearing the end of its life cycle. SimMan 3G has been incorporated in to numerous VAPHS staff and healthcare trainee educational experiences to include team response to medical emergencies such as cardiac arrest and malignant hyperthermia and the orientation of new nurse residents.

Objectives:

The Institute of Medicine reports teamwork and communication failures as the leading cause of medical error. Providing a safe, learning environment in which teams can practice crucial conversation skills is imperative to patient safety and outcomes. The purchase of this mannequin will ensure that the equipment needed to continue these programs is available and up to date.

Tasks:

The SimMan 3G was selected due to its ease of use and functionality. Other mannequins require extraneous gases to display respiratory effort which would require specialized oxygen hook up in simulation spaces and the transport of oxygen takes to any sites where a simulation is being conducted outside of simulation space. The LLEAP programming system used in the operation of SimMan 3G has a user friendly interface that supports on-the-fly training as well as pre-programmed learning events.

Criteria used in the selection of the SimMan 3G were:

Ease of use; programming capability, standalone functionality

Wireless capabilities

Control simulations from one interface

Reliable operations in multiple learning environments

Multiple skills and features:

Intubation: ET, OT, NT

Cricothyotomy

Ventilator compatible

Ability to change lung compliance and settings

Palpable pulses

Ability to demonstrate airway complications such as inability to ventilate, laryngospasm, trismus, and decreased cervical range of motion.

Vascular access

Automatic drug recognition system

Provide real time feedback on the quality of CPR delivered based upon AHA guidelines.

Demonstrate seizure activity

Delivery:

The Laerdal company will ship SimMan 3G in two large soft sided containers once the order has been processed. The items will be shipped within 30 days upon receipt of payment. Laerdal technician will come on site to complete the one day installation.

Government Furnished Property:

None

Place of Performance:

VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System, University Drive, BLDG 29, 2M309

Period of Performance:

SimMan 3G will be used on an ongoing basis to train current and future staff and healthcare trainees.
