Training Manikins Market Overview

The global training manikins market expansion is primarily driven by advancements in simulation technology, which have enhanced the realism and effectiveness of training manikins. These manikins now come equipped with features such as realistic anatomical structures, responsive airways, and integrated sensors, facilitating comprehensive training in various medical procedures. The increasing prevalence of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCA), and the growing emphasis on CPR training and awareness programs further contribute to the market growth. According to the WHO data published in 2020, the number of deaths from coronary artery disease in France reached 63,181. As per the Heart Failure Policy Network, the condition affected ~1 million individuals in France. Additionally, the prevalence rate of heart failure is as high as 10% in people aged 70 years and above, and ~120,000 people suffer from heart attacks every year in the country. Thus, the demand for training manikins is rising with the burgeoning focus on patient safety and the increasing prevalence of OHCA.

In August 2023, 3B Scientific, a prominent manufacturer and supplier of medical simulation products and anatomical models for healthcare education, acquired Lifecast Body Simulation to strengthen its position in the market.

Training Manikins Market Drivers and Opportunities

Advancements in Technologies Bolsters Market Growth

Training manikins have evolved considerably in terms of technology and complexity. These manikins are now equipped with sophisticated systems that accurately simulate human physiological functions; the development enables trainers to provide clinicians with opportunities to learn, practice, and master their skills across both simple and highly complex procedures, including various diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, such as childbirth, respiratory care, cardiovascular treatment, neurological procedures, pharmacological modeling, and simulation. These manikins are designed to create and allow participants to practice procedures such as CPR, intubation, bag-mask ventilation, defibrillation, and chest tube placement.

CAE Healthcare has developed models and simulators for various procedures; these include products ranging from neonatal to adult manikins. For instance, the human patient simulator (HPS) is a full-body training manikin created to support anesthesia and medical gases, with patented respiratory, neurological, cardiovascular, and pharmacological modeling. It is the Gold Standard in high-fidelity patient simulation for respiratory and critical care training. The HPS interfaces with real clinical monitors and ventilators, and automatically responds to administration of real anesthetic gases, oxygen therapy, and drugs/medications. Lucina, another crucial training manikin, is a wireless childbirth simulator with incorporated maternal-fetal physiology and interchangeable static services to train the learners on all delivery stages and rare emergency scenarios. The Lucina manikin comes with an ability to demonstrate realistic, controllable birthing processes from normal delivery scenarios to various birth complications, including shoulder dystocia and eclampsia, and great articulation for labor and delivery maneuvers.
