Learning cardiac or pulmonary auscultation has never been easier than with the advent of the SAM, the Student Auscultation Manikin and SAM On-Line. Can your students tell the difference between a pleural rub of the lung and a pericardial friction rub? With SAM, they can easily and quickly compare one sound with another. Innocent systolic murmurs often sound like the murmur of aortic stenosis. Can the student tell the difference? What is the best method to determine if the patient has mitral valve prolapse? With SAM, these and other sounds are presented along with a complete teaching guide. SAM, the Student Auscultation Manikin provides a means for instructors to teach cardiac and pulmonary auscultation to students at any level. The students can be taught as a group using the optional SimulScope or Classroom Infrared Emitter. Later the students can practice on SAM using their own stethoscope and also with the optional SAM On-Line.Features:16 Heart/Lung Combination Sounds35 Heart Sounds, 21 Breath Sounds, 20 Bowel Sounds, 4 Carotid Bruits.Sounds at Correct Anatomical Site.Heart Sounds at four Anatomical Locations.Breath Sounds at eight Anatomical Locations.Bowel Sounds at two Anatomical Locations.Angle of Louis Identified as landmarkAnatomical T-Shirt supplied with rib locations200+ Page Lesson Guide SuppliedMajor Features:Use your own StethoscopeSelect sounds via computer menuFull lesson guide for every sound with questions and answersLessons are printable and can be sent via emailLecture can be preprogrammed, allowing for seamless transitions between soundsSound and Visual outputs for use with classroom speakers and projectorsPhonocardiograms of each heart sound.Carotid Pulse for Detection of Systole.
