Pocket T.O.M.®
Pocket T.O.M. is a more portable version of our standard Tracheostomy T.O.M. model. It is small enough to fit in a coat pocket but big enough to demonstrate tracheostomy placement and possible complications.
“I have been spending lots of time with Pocket T.O.M.! It really is a wonderful tool for education. I just took it with me this a.m. to educate a 32-year lady with myasthenia exacerbation who required a trach. She has felt overwhelmed and nervous about the trach, swallowing, PMV, etc. She felt much better after education session with our buddy T.O.M.”
