Basic CRiSis™ Infant Crisis Manikin

This dramatic training manikin is ideal for beginning practice and building skills to work on the more advanced skills of the Life/form® Infant or Deluxe Infant CRiSis™ Manikins. Visual and tactile realism are combined in the simulator to provide students with the most realistic training possible to learn with incredible accuracy. Anatomical landmarks provide key features necessary to learn proper infant handling in emergency situations. Manikin can be upgraded to the Life/form® Complete Infant or Deluxe Infant CRiSis™ Manikins by adding the Manikin Modular Component upgrades available. This full-body infant manikin was created to offer realistic training and practice of infant airway management and CPR education. Anatomically correct in both size and detail. Landmarks include gum line, tongue, oral and nasal pharynx, larynx, epiglottis, arytenoids, false and true vocal cords, cricoid ring, tracheal rings, trachea, and esophagus. Also allows practice of intubation, and suction techniques can be performed and evaluated. Designed for use with an uncuffed endotracheal tube measuring up to 1/8″ (4 mm) inside diameter. Includes artificial blood, IV bag, umbilical cord replacements, carry case, spray pump lubricant, and instruction manual.

Excellent — richest source content in the BLS Newborn category so far. This is a sophisticated multi-skill infant simulator with a full airway anatomy, intubation capability, and modular upgrade path. Here’s the full enriched output:

📝 Product Description

The Life/form® Basic CRiSis™ Infant Crisis Manikin (Item No. LF03707U) by Nasco Healthcare, USA is an advanced full-body infant simulation manikin combining highly realistic airway anatomy, CPR training, and intubation capability in a single, upgradeable platform. It is the entry point of the Life/form® Infant CRiSis™ series — designed for institutions that need to train beyond basic infant CPR into the full scope of infant airway management, resuscitation, and emergency intervention skills.

Advanced Airway Anatomy — Unmatched at This Level:

The manikin features a fully detailed infant airway with all critical landmarks for accurate intubation and airway management training: gum line, tongue, oral and nasal pharynx, larynx, epiglottis, arytenoids, false and true vocal cords, cricoid ring, tracheal rings, trachea, and oesophagus. This level of anatomical specificity makes it suitable for students learning to identify and navigate infant airway anatomy before progressing to live patients.

Key Features:

• Full-body infant manikin — anatomically correct in both size and detail; proper infant proportions for realistic handling in emergency scenarios
• Complete airway landmark set — gum line, tongue, oropharynx, nasopharynx, larynx, epiglottis, arytenoids, true and false vocal cords, cricoid ring, tracheal rings, trachea, and oesophagus
• Oral and nasal intubation — designed for use with uncuffed endotracheal tubes up to 4 mm (1/8 inch) inside diameter; both oral and nasal routes supported
• Supraglottic airway device training — compatible with LMA and other supraglottic devices for airway management training
• Suctioning technique practice — suction manoeuvres can be performed and evaluated
• CPR training — full infant CPR technique with anatomically correct chest compressions
• Artificial blood simulation — artificial blood included for realistic trauma and resuscitation scenarios
• IV bag and umbilical cord replacements included — foundational vascular access simulation
• Spray pump lubricant included — for airway maintenance
• Carry case included
• Upgradeable to full CRiSis™ system — modular component upgrades available to advance to Intermediate, Complete, or Deluxe Infant CRiSis™ capability

The Life/form® Infant CRiSis™ Series — Upgrade Path:

Institutions can start with the Basic model and add modular component upgrades over time — protecting procurement investment without requiring full unit replacement as training scope expands.

Ideal For:

• NMC/INC-compliant neonatal and paediatric simulation lab airway management and resuscitation stations
• Paediatric nursing, neonatal nursing, and emergency medicine training programmes
• PALS and NRP (Neonatal Resuscitation Programme) advanced skills training
• Institutions building infant airway management competency beyond basic CPR — intubation, supraglottic devices, suctioning
• Skills labs planning a phased approach: start with Basic CRiSis™ and upgrade modularly as budget and training scope grow
• AYUSH institutions developing advanced paediatric simulation capability

Q: What skills can be trained on the Basic CRiSis™ Infant Manikin?
A: Infant CPR, oral and nasal intubation using uncuffed ETT (up to 4 mm ID), supraglottic airway device insertion (LMA and others), suctioning technique, airway landmark identification, and basic vascular access simulation using the included IV bag and umbilical cord replacements.

Q: What airway landmarks are present on this manikin?
A: The full infant airway is represented: gum line, tongue, oral pharynx, nasal pharynx, larynx, epiglottis, arytenoid cartilages, false vocal cords, true vocal cords, cricoid ring, tracheal rings, trachea, and oesophagus — the complete landmark set required for accurate infant intubation training.

Q: What size endotracheal tube is compatible?
A: Uncuffed endotracheal tubes with an inside diameter of up to 4 mm (1/8 inch) — appropriate for infant intubation training per standard paediatric airway management guidelines.

Q: Can supraglottic airway devices be used on this manikin?
A: Yes. The manikin is compatible with supraglottic airway devices including LMA for infant airway management training beyond intubation.

Q: How does this differ from Baby Buddy™ or Baby Sani?
A: Baby Buddy™ and Baby Sani are basic infant CPR manikins — no airway anatomy, no intubation capability. The Basic CRiSis™ is a fundamentally different class of product: a full infant simulation manikin with complete airway anatomy, intubation, supraglottic device, and suctioning capability. It is priced accordingly and targets institutions with advanced neonatal and paediatric training requirements.

Q: Can this manikin be upgraded later?
A: Yes. Modular component upgrades allow progression to Intermediate (adds intraosseous infusion, IV arm and leg), Complete (adds ECG/umbilical cannulation skin, optional ECG simulator), and Deluxe (includes ECG arrhythmia simulator) levels. Institutions can start with the Basic model and expand capability over time without replacing the core manikin.

Q: Is this suitable for NRP and PALS training?
A: Yes. The airway anatomy detail and intubation capability make this suitable for NRP (Neonatal Resuscitation Programme) and PALS (Paediatric Advanced Life Support) advanced airway skills training in addition to basic infant CPR.

Q: Is this suitable for NMC-compliant simulation labs?
A: Yes. The Basic CRiSis™ meets the advanced infant airway and resuscitation simulation requirements for NMC-compliant paediatric and neonatal skills stations in medical college and nursing institute simulation labs.

Manikin can be used with Supraglottic airway devices for airway training.
