Clean Bleed® Mat – Blood and Fluid Loss Simulator

• Controllable flow rates of between 50ml and 600ml per minute for realistic blood loss simulation
• Blood loss can be measured either visually, or by weighing
• Simple and easy set up takes just 2 minutes
• Provides mess-free blood loss simulation training
• Suitable for use with simulated patients, task trainers and full body manikins
• Quick release bag allows trainees to replace the bag quickly, as they would in a real-life scenario
• Absorbent pad behaves as an inco pad would
• Housed in a carry bag

• Unique sealed blood flow, heightens the realism for simulated scenarios
• Create high flow examples, such as: vaginal trauma (including post-partum haemorrhage or meconium fluid); abdominal, chest and neck trauma; loss of limb and post-operative bleeds
• Create low flow examples, such as: head or peripheral trauma; post-operative bleeds; meconium fluid

• The Clean Bleed Mat can be used in conjunction with simulated patients, task trainers or full-body manikins
• Can be used to simulate a range of fluids
• Portable and durable for use in both indoors and outdoors
• Bag allows for the use of standard sized inco pads (60cm x 90cm)

• This product is latex free
• The blood used with this product now contains a new preservative which is approved for use by EU cosmetic regulations which means that, once diluted, it is safe for extended skin contact. We still recommend the use of gloves, as the pigments may stain skin and clothes.

The trainee builds on previous training with more detailed knowledge, skills and behaviours Major trauma – Abdominal trauma: – The trainee will be able to evaluate the patient who presents with major trauma and to identify and treat the life-threatening presentations, to produce a valid differential diagnosis, appropriate investigation and implement a management plan. – Know the different presentations of blunt and penetrating abdominal trauma and the structures that may be damaged, Specifically, blunt splenic, hepatic, renal, pancreatic trauma, hollow viscus injury, urethral/bladder and testicular trauma Traumatic limb and joint injuries: – Know when to seek senior advice in the management of limb and joint trauma Bruising and spontaneous bleeding: – The trainee will be able to evaluate the patient who presents with bruising or spontaneous bleeding and produce a valid differential diagnosis, appropriate investigation, and implement a management plan

Any scenario or clinical procedure where the external blood flow or blood (or any other fluid) is a critical signal to act and intervene. For example, low flow bleeds from head or peripheral trauma to high flow bleeds such post-partum haemorrhages and post-operative bleeds.

____________________________________

The Clean Bleed® bag is produced using a durable, tear resistant material. This allows it to be used on or under medical training equipment, as well as being knelt or stood on by trainees when they perform examinations.

____________________________________

Yes, but we highly recommend using Limbs & Things blood as it provides the most realistic flow characteristics and optimum pump performance. Other brands may also cause staining.

____________________________________

Yes, the downloadable User Guide gives you clear instructions on how to set up the mat, and an advanced learner can run scenarios with other users.

____________________________________

Yes, the fluid in the blood reservoir can be substituted with simulated urine to simulate incontinence.

____________________________________

We recommend that you use the Limbs & Things pads, as they allow for a more even flow of fluids and can be used multiple times. However, if you have a supply of the standard Chux/Inco pads you will be able to use them with this product.

____________________________________

For best results, lay the mat on a flat surface, if it its uneven the blood can pool at the bottom and not spread evenly.

____________________________________

For the best results, lay the mat on a flat surface and position the simulated patient so that the end connected to the pump is underneath their body. Ensure that they are not applying pressure to the tube, or entry point,  to avoid blocking the flow of liquid.

____________________________________

The mats can be replaced in around 2 minutes, for an even faster switchover the entire bag and mat can be swapped thanks to the quick-release connectors. Extra bags are available here.
