Nasopharyngeal Swab Collection Simulator
Developed in response to training needs for COVID-19 identification and the collection of other respiratory specimens such as influenza, this model allows for the training of both nasal and pharyngeal swab collection. The angled adult head and shoulders support pharyngeal swab training, enabling trainees to practice tongue depression during swab collection. For nasal swabs, learners receive visual feedback—the swab appears pigmented when positioned correctly within the nasal cavity, with distinct left and right nostril profiles. An included cross-sectional anatomical model aids procedural understanding.
