SIMBODIES Advanced Child Manikin
A hyper-realistic pediatric training manikin in 5-year-old and 10-year-old sizes, male and female, across three skin tones — delivering the cadaver-casted fidelity of the adult SIMBODIES line scaled to child anatomy for Advanced Life Support and pediatric trauma training.
The Safeguard Medical SIMBODIES Advanced Child is a hyper-realistic pediatric training manikin available in approximately 5-year-old and 10-year-old sizes, in both male and female variants across three skin tones. Purpose-built for Advanced Life Support and pediatric trauma training, it delivers the clinical fidelity of the adult SIMBODIES line scaled to child anatomy — supporting airway management, hemorrhage control, IO access, and more.

What It Is
Pediatric trauma scenarios demand a level of realism that standard training manikins cannot provide — and the consequences of under-preparing clinicians and first responders for child casualties are severe. The SIMBODIES Advanced Child addresses this gap directly. Available as an approximately 5-year-old or 10-year-old child, in male and female forms across three skin tones, it delivers the same cadaver-casted, prosthetic-grade silicone fidelity that defines the adult SIMBODIES EMS-Man/Woman — scaled to pediatric anatomy.
The airway is cast from cadaver specimens to reproduce the precise anatomy required for realistic laryngoscopy, tracheal intubation, supraglottic airway insertion, and BVM ventilation. The chest allows manual chest compressions and AED pad application. IO access sites are positioned at the anatomically correct humeral head and tibial locations. Life-like flexible limbs, manual eyelid movement, and splashproof silicone skin enable trainees to practice patient assessment, dressing application, pelvic binder use, and spinal immobilization in child-specific proportions.
For EMS units, hospital pediatric teams, and military/TEMS operators who encounter child casualties in mass-casualty and austere environments, the Advanced Child closes a critical gap in training fidelity. It pairs naturally with SIMBODIES moulage kits and IV cannulation sleeves to simulate the full spectrum of pediatric trauma and medical emergencies.
Supported Training Capabilities

Training Scenarios for the SIMBODIES Advanced Child
- Pediatric ALS programs: Realistic cadaver-casted airway supports laryngoscopy, ETT intubation, and supraglottic device insertion in age-appropriate proportions for 5yo and 10yo anatomy.
- TCCC/TEMS pediatric casualty drills: IO access at humeral head and tibia, tourniquet application, junctional hemorrhage control, and chest seal placement on a child-sized manikin.
- Mass-casualty triage exercises: Available in three skin tones and both sexes to represent diverse patient populations in MASCAL and START/JumpSTART triage training.
- Hospital pediatric rapid response: Pelvic binder application, spinal immobilization, BVM ventilation, and AED pad placement in pediatric dimensions for PALS-aligned scenario drills.
- Nursing and clinical education: IV and IO access, wound dressing, and patient assessment skills practiced on realistic child anatomy for nursing, paramedic, and physician programs.
SIMBODIES Advanced Child vs. Standard Pediatric Mannequins
- Cadaver-casted airway vs. approximate airway geometry: Most pediatric training manikins use modeled approximations; the Advanced Child is cast from cadaver specimens for true anatomical accuracy.
- Prosthetic-grade silicone vs. hard plastic or foam: The silicone skin provides tactile tissue feel during palpation, dressing, and procedural training — hard-plastic manikins cannot replicate this.
- Dual age sizes (5yo and 10yo): Pediatric anatomy changes substantially between 5 and 10 years; providing both sizes prepares providers for the full paediatric range rather than a single 'child' form.
- Three skin tones, both sexes: Training with demographic diversity reduces cognitive fixation on a single patient type and improves provider response across real-world patient populations.
- SIMBODIES ecosystem compatibility: Pairs with IV cannulation SIM-Sleeves, moulage kits, and replacement skin components; consumables are shared across the SIMBODIES lineup.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the weight and height of the Advanced Child manikin in each size?
A: Safeguard Medical does not publish exact weight and height figures in standard product documentation; the manikins are described as approximately 5-year-old and 10-year-old in size, consistent with typical child anatomy for those developmental ages. Contact Safeguard Medical or your authorized distributor for precise dimensional data relevant to equipment compatibility (e.g., backboard, stretcher).
Q: Can the Advanced Child manikin be used with moulage kits?
A: Yes. The SIMBODIES Advanced Child is compatible with Safeguard Medical's full range of moulage products, including the Child Moulage Kit and SIM-Sleeves sized for the manikin's limbs. The splashproof platinum silicone skin supports application of simulation blood, bruising gels, and wound effects without damage to the surface, and can be cleaned with standard SIMBODIES cleaning solutions.
Q: Does the Advanced Child manikin include a Bluetooth speaker?
A: The Bluetooth speaker is listed as optional for the Advanced Child. Per SIMBODIES configuration documentation, the 10-year-old variant can be optioned with lower-limb amputation and wounds, and a pelvic or thigh packing wound — features that benefit from audio simulation. Contact your Safeguard Medical representative to confirm speaker inclusion and optional configurations for the specific SKU.
