We offer an array of tools designed and developed to best meet the educational needs of medical professionals and facilities.

Tracheostomy T.O.M. ®

tracheostomy tom Tracheostomy Observation Model
Tracheostomy T.O.M. is a portable, durable polyurethane elastomer model mounted on an acrylic platform that depicts a midsagittal view of the nasal cavity with nare, oral cavity, pharynx, trachea, and upper esophagus of a tracheostomized adult. A “stoma” is provided in the lower neck area to allow for demonstration of the effect of various aspects of tracheostomy care, and tracheostomy placement issues. The nare is open, allowing insertion and placement of a suction catheter or nasogastric tube. The flexible tracheoesophageal wall allows for demonstration of the effects of an overinflated tracheostomy tube cuff on the esophagus.

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.”
