AirSim® Bronchi

AirSim® Airway delivers true-to-life anatomical visualisation of the following landmarks:

Nasopharynx:

• Nasal Turbinates

Oropharynx:

• Tongue
• Uvula
• Vallecula

Laryngopharynx:

• Epiglottis
• Arytenoid cartilage
• Oesophageal opening

Larynx:

• Glottis
• Vocal cords

Lower Airway:

• Tracheal rings
• Carina
• Bronchus
• Bronchioles

You can also introduce tongue edema for a difficult airway scenario.

The AirSim Bronchi offers a range of procedures relating to bronchoscopy training such as;

• Diagnostic bronchoscopy
• Single lung isolation techniques
• Oral Intubation
• Nasal Intubation

Adjustable neck locks allowing the manikin to be secured into various positions. Increase intubation difficult with the inflatable tongue bulb to create tongue edema.

Integrated visual indicators of stomach inflation and lung expansion provide immediate feedback to reinforce correct ventilation and airway management technique.

AirSim is certified for 80,000+ intubation cycles without fail and is supported by a 3-year warranty, delivering long-term operational confidence for high-throughput programmes.

Delivered ready to use in a durable carry case for straightforward transportation and safe storage – supporting consistent deployment across multiple training locations.

Set-up time is under 5 minutes – simply remove the manikin from the carry case, then spray the airway and nasal passage generously with the lubricant provided.

The AirSim airway has been designed using CT DICOM data from real patients, to provide trainees with a lifelike intubation training solution. The internal airway is anatomically accurate and will guarantee 80,000+ intubation cycles when used correctly. This manikin also features bronchi to the 4th generation.

Learners will gain proficiency in the below procedures:

• Direct and video laryngoscopy
• Endotracheal intubation
• Nasotracheal intubation
• Supraglottic device insertion
• Combitube insertion
• Fibre optic intubation & examination
• Nasogastric (NG) tube insertion techniques
• Single lung isolation techniques
• Bronchoscopy techniques

• 1 AirSim Bronchi manikin ready to use (AA51100)
• 1 Carrier case
• 1 Bottle of TruCorp lubrication
• 3 Adult lung bags replicating 2 lungs and stomach
• 2 sets of adhesive pads (attachable to suction cups for increased stability if required)

Lubrication is the only consumable required for ongoing training using the AirSim Bronchi. TruCorp’s lubrication is a cost-efficient, silicone-based solution and is supplied in a 100ml bottle. Please contact our sales team to purchase.

We recommend TruCorp’s silicone based lubrication for best practice, but alternatives can be used provided they are water or silicone-based lubricants. Avoid using petroleum/oil based lubricants as this will degrade the material over time.

No, this training manikin is delivered ready to use so you can begin training straight away! Simply ensure the head is in the correct position (sniffing or neutral) and generously spray the oral/nasal passages and equipment with the lubrication provided.

• Size 7.0-7.5mm ID for nasal intubation
• Size 8.0-9.0mm ID for oral intubation
• Size 3-5 for LMA laryngeal masks
• Similar respective sizes for other supraglottic devices
• Size 35F-37F for endo-bronchial tubes

Yes, if successfully intubated the two lung bags will inflate. If the airway device is incorrectly placed in the esophagus, the stomach bag will inflate.

The tongue can be inflated to simulate tongue edema. Attach an empty syringe to the red connector located near the chin and insert approx. 20ml of air.

The AirSim Bronchi manikin comes with a 3-year warranty beginning from the date of delivery.

Please contact us and provide the serial number (found under the manikin base) and an image/video of the issue. If it meets the warranty conditions TruCorp will repair free of charge. If warranty has expired, our sales team will provide a quote for repair.

Please store the manikin in clean, dry conditions away from heat and direct sunlight. Avoid contact with metals, solvents, oils or greases and strong detergents. When the product is not in use please store in the black carrier case provided.

Thoroughly wash the AirSim airway in warm water. Please use warm soapy water or similar until all visible foreign matter and residue is removed.

Mild detergents or enzymatic cleaning agents may be used on the airway at the proper dilution. The detergent must not contain skin or mucous membrane irritants.

Please do not use any of the following when cleaning the AirSim product range:
• Germicides, disinfectants, or chemical agents such as glutaraldehyde (e.g. Cidex®)
• Ethylene oxide, phenol-based cleaners, or iodine-containing cleaners

In response to the recent COVID-19 pandemic, we recommend this additional step to ensure the product is fully sanitized:

Generously spray alcohol spray or gel (minimum 75% alcohol) and wipe off. Repeat 3-4 times to fully disinfect the product. This can be done on the silicone skin and the latex airway.
