📝 Product Description

The Life/form® AED Trainer with Brad™ CPR Manikin (Item No. 1018858 / MPN: LF03741U) by Nasco Healthcare, USA is a premium BLS training bundle pairing the Life/form® Universal AED Trainer with the Brad™ full-body adult CPR manikin. Designed for institutions that need realistic, hands-on combined CPR and AED training, this bundle upgrades the experience with a more anatomically detailed, full-body manikin that closely simulates the feel of working on a real patient — making it the preferred choice over entry-level manikin bundles for professional medical and nursing education.

Component 1: Life/form® Universal AED Trainer

A compact, instructor-controlled AED training device for AHA-compliant cardiac arrest response training.

• 4 selectable training scenarios — covers both “shock advised” and “no shock advised” situations
• Audio and written prompts in English — large LCD display for written instructions; simultaneous audio guidance
• Manual and hands-free training modes — instructor-led and self-directed practice supported
• Reusable training pads and electrode sets — cable-connected via rear of unit for realistic pad placement
• Volume adjustment — suitable for individual and group training
• Low battery indicator — 9V battery powered (included)
• AHA 2005 Guidelines compliant

Component 2: Brad™ CPR Manikin

A full-body, anatomically realistic adult CPR manikin constructed for professional-grade BLS training.

• Soft vinyl plastic over polyurethane foam construction — provides a realistic, human-like feel during chest compressions and rescue breathing
• Extended torso length — enables realistic practice of abdominal thrusts (Heimlich manoeuvre) in addition to CPR
• Realistic head tilt and chin lift — accurate airway opening technique simulation
• Airway obstruction simulation — manikin can be easily manipulated to simulate choking or partial airway obstruction scenarios
• User-friendly disposable lung/airway system — eliminates the need for cleaning between students; simply replace the disposable unit
• 3 mouth/nose pieces and 3 disposable lung/airway systems included — ready for immediate multi-student use
• Nylon carry bag and kneeling pads included — complete setup for mobile or in-lab training

Key Differentiator vs Basic Buddy™ Bundle: The Brad™ manikin offers a full-body form factor with realistic vinyl-foam feel, extended torso for Heimlich training, and airway obstruction simulation — significantly higher training fidelity than the torso-only Basic Buddy™. Institutions seeking a more complete and realistic BLS training experience should select this bundle.

Package Contents:

• Life/form® Universal AED Trainer with reusable pads, electrode sets, 9V battery, and operating instructions
• Brad™ CPR Manikin with 3 mouth/nose pieces, 3 disposable lung/airway systems, nylon carry bag, and kneeling pads

Q: What is the key difference between this bundle and the Life/form® AED Trainer with Basic Buddy™?
A: The AED trainer component is identical. The difference is the manikin. Brad™ is a full-body adult manikin with soft vinyl-over-foam construction for a realistic human feel, a longer torso for Heimlich/abdominal thrust training, and the ability to simulate airway obstruction scenarios. Basic Buddy™ is a simpler, more economical torso-focused manikin without these features. Brad™ is the better choice for professional medical and nursing education.

Q: What skills can be practised on the Brad™ manikin?
A: CPR chest compressions, rescue breathing, head tilt/chin lift airway opening, abdominal thrusts (Heimlich manoeuvre), and airway obstruction recognition and management.

Q: Does the Brad™ manikin require sanitisation between students?
A: No. The disposable lung/airway system and separate mouth/nose pieces are replaced between students, eliminating cross-contamination risk without requiring manikin sanitisation. Three complete sets are included.

Q: How many AED training scenarios does this bundle support?
A: The Life/form® Universal AED Trainer includes 4 pre-programmed scenarios covering both “shock advised” and “no shock advised” cardiac arrest situations, supporting varied clinical presentations in training.

Q: Can the AED trainer be used independently without the manikin?
A: Yes. The Life/form® Universal AED Trainer is a standalone device and can be used with any CPR training manikin. However, this bundle is specifically packaged and priced as a complete combined BLS station kit.

Q: Is this bundle suitable for NMC-compliant BLS skills labs?
A: Yes. The combined CPR manikin and AED trainer fulfils core NMC BLS skills station requirements for medical college and nursing institute simulation labs, and the Brad™ manikin’s Heimlich capability supports additional first aid competency training within the same station.

Q: Can replacement lung/airway systems be ordered separately?
A: Yes. Replacement disposable lung/airway systems and mouth/nose pieces for the Brad™ manikin are available as consumables — contact SEM Trainers to order.

Q: What is included in the carry bag?
A: The nylon carry bag contains the Brad™ manikin, kneeling pads, 3 mouth/nose pieces, 3 disposable lung/airway systems. The AED trainer with its accessories is packaged separately.

Ideal For:

• NMC/INC-compliant BLS skills stations requiring combined CPR and AED training with higher-fidelity manikin
• Medical college and nursing institute first and second-year BLS programmes
• Institutions requiring Heimlich manoeuvre and airway obstruction training alongside CPR and AED
• Emergency medicine, paramedic, and first responder training programmes
• Institutions stepping up from basic manikin bundles to professional-grade BLS simulation
