Improved technology and higher fidelity are making medical simulations increasingly popular. A simulated peripheral nerve stimulator and thumb actuator has been developed for use with the SimMan Universal Patient Simulator. This device incorporates a handheld control box, a McKibben pneumatic muscle and articulated thumb, and a remote software interface for the simulation facilitator. The system simulates the action of a peripheral nerve stimulator on the ulnar nerve, and the effects of neuromuscular junction blocking agents on the thumb motion.
技术的改进和更高的逼真度使医学模拟越来越受欢迎。已开发出一种模拟外周神经刺激器和拇指执行器，用于SimMan通用患者模拟器。该设备包括一个手持控制盒、一个麦基布气动肌肉和关节拇指，以及一个用于模拟辅助人员的远程软件接口。该系统模拟外周神经刺激器对尺神经的作用，以及神经肌肉接头阻滞剂对拇指运动的影响。
