Baby Simira: Neonatal Skills Trainer
Baby SIMira is a hyperrealistic, full-term neonatal skills trainer created to help clinicians practice critical moments after birth: airway management, resuscitation, and vascular access.
SIMira mirrors the weight, texture, and fragility of a real newborn. Every detail is designed to let learners experience the tactile and emotional reality of caring for a baby who needs immediate support.
Important Note:
SIMira is a post-delivery neonatal trainer. She is not designed for use in birthing simulators or live obstetric scenarios. Clinical Applications
