DESCRIPTION
Introducing SAM4, the latest evolution in auscultation training brought to you by Cardionics. Building on the success of its predecessors, including SAM Basic, SAM II, and SAM 3G, SAM4 introduces exclusive enhancements to enrich your auscultation learning experience:
Smartphone or Tablet Manikin Control
SAM4 liberates you from the need for a laptop or computer. Through the new SAM4 app, compatible with both iOS and Android, users can seamlessly manage the manikin. This user-friendly interface simplifies the learning process, making it more accessible and convenient than ever before.
360-Degree Rotational Base
Enhancing the teaching and learning process, SAM4 features a 360-degree rotational base. This innovative addition makes it effortless to demonstrate auscultation points and precisely position the manikin as required, providing educators with greater flexibility.
Integrated LED Lights at All Auscultation Points
One of SAM4’s standout features is its integrated LED lights, strategically positioned at each auscultation point. These built-in lights illuminate the correct positions for sound examination, ensuring that students can easily identify and focus on the appropriate areas for auscultation. This feature is designed to boost precision and confidence in the learning process.
Bluetooth Sound Connectivity
Students can opt for a traditional experience using a real stethoscope to listen to sounds. Alternatively, they can embrace modern convenience with our new Bluetooth connection feature. This feature enables seamless connectivity with external sound devices like earbuds for individual practice. Additionally, it opens up the possibility of sharing the learning experience with larger audiences by connecting to a sound box. With SAM4, you have the flexibility to choose, offering versatility and adaptability to meet your auscultation requirements.
SAM4 maintains its commitment to student engagement, self-study, and comprehensive education. It provides an extensive library of both normal and abnormal cardiac, respiratory, bowel, and bruit sounds, all of the highest audio quality. The ultimate version of SAM4 (718-8814/718-8914) grants access to the Real Sounds Library, featuring 36 real heart and lung sounds recorded from live patients, along with 12 Echocardiogram Videos and 3 Dynamic Sounds. These additional resources empower educators to customize their teaching materials to specific lectures and programs.
With SAM4, students can confidently practice their auscultation skills using their own stethoscope and receiving crystal-clear sounds.
Weighing just over 20 pounds (9 Kg), SAM4 is lightweight and easily portable. Instructors can effortlessly transport SAM4 to the skills lab, classroom, or auditorium, ensuring that students have ample opportunities to practice their auscultation skills.
