Operative Experience, a company pioneering in high-fidelity human patient simulators announced the launch of RealMom, a groundbreaking full body simulator that will revolutionize the way physicians learn the skill of vaginal births.

The RealMom mannequin features very soft, natural looking anatomical parts with an active birth canal and human like cervix that undergo effacement and dilatation. The model baby is full term infant and the model mother has a uterus, placenta, and umbilical cord, amniotic fluid reservoir as well as a fundus that can be massaged.

Jane O’Reilly, Global VP of Sales for OE said in a press release, “RealMom is simply the most exciting development in labor and delivery training to date. RealMom looks real and feels real and provides learners with the most realistic and lifelike simulated birthing experience out there. It’s really one of a kind.”

The physician can get ‘real life’ training in conducting vaginal births as well as more complicated procedures, such as breech, shoulder dystocia, nuchal cord, cord prolapse, and assisted delivery with forceps and vacuum devices.

RealMom can be hooked to any computer browser, iOS or Android tablet device and can be operated wirelessly. Various parameters such as cervical dilatation and effacement, fetal heart rate (FHR), contractions, tones, maternal blood pressure and Oxygen concentration can easily be programmed to train physicians to deal with challenging and life-threatening obstetrics scenarios.  

The simulator can even mimic the most dreaded obstetric complication of post-partum hemorrhage, with the ability to control the amount of blood lost and manage it effectively with a Bakri or Ebb balloon.

It is reasonably priced as compared to other simulators with no complicated programming and no simulator downtime.

Other simulators available with Operative Experience are Fetal Extraction Simulator, Postpartum Hemorrhage Control Trainer, Emergency Hysterectomy Trainer, Emergency C-Section Delivery Simulator and C-Section Skills Trainer.
