The following techniques should not be performed on this manikin due to the inability to properly sanitize the airway if they are performed: • Mouth-to-mouth/Mouth-to-mask ventilation • Insertion of simulated vomit for suctioning • Lubricate the oral and nasal airways liberally with the lubricant provided prior to inserting any instrument, tube or airway device into the airway. Additionally, instruments and tubes should also be lubricated prior to use. • Do not allow the manikin's skin to come in direct contact with ink or photocopied paper, as this can permanently stain the skin. Avoid using colored plastic gloves when handling the manikin, as they may also cause discoloration. • Care should be taken when palpating the pulses to not use excessive force as this will result in no pulse being felt. Only two individual pulses can be felt at the same time. • If a training session involves the administration of fluids and/or drugs into the IV arm, empty the arm immediately following the training session. • Defibrillation • Only apply the defibrillator to a defibrillation post or zap plate which is properly mounted on the manikin's chest. • Do not provide more than 2 x 360J defibrillator discharges per minute as an average over a period of time to prevent overheating. • The manikin chest must be kept dry. Special attention should be taken when using IV Arm. • Do not apply conductive gel or conductive defibrillation pads intended for patient use to prevent chest skin pitting. • Do not use cables or connectors with visible damage. • Observe all normal safety precautions for use of defibrillators. • Defibrillation must be performed over the two defibrillation connectors only. This device generates, uses and possibly radiates radio-frequency energy. If it is not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, it may cause harmful interference to radio communications. In that case, the user is encouraged to attempt correction of the interference by: • Reorienting or relocating the receiving antenna. • Increasing the distance between the device and receiver. • Connecting the device to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. • Consulting the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.  Introduction MegaCode Kelly is a full-body, lifelike manikin designed for the practice of advanced, difficult and obstructed airway scenarios and IV therapy. When used with the VitalSim Vital Signs Simulator; MegaCode Kelly allows cardiac defibrillation, pacing with or without capture and variable threshold, ECG interpretation of over 1100 rhythm variations, measurement of non-invasive blood pressure, and the auscultation and recognition of heart, breath and abdominal sounds.VitalSim also allows the use of the pre-recorded vocal sounds, and live voice through the use of a wireless microphone and logging and scenario functions.  Electromagnetic radiation from other radio transmitters or other electronic equipment may cause noise in the head speaker. To eliminate this noise, move manikin away from the radiation source or turn the head speaker volume to zero.  The manufacturing quality of this manikin should provide many sessions of training when reasonable care and maintenance are practiced.
