No one doubts the effectiveness of clinical simulation as a method of teaching future and existing medical professionals.

In turn, the equipment for conducting clinical simulations can be a challenge, especially when it comes to simulated drugs. 
Simulated drugs are expensive and not available everywhere, real ones can be dangerous and sometimes illegal to use in simulations, and used empty medicine packaging can still be dangerous. 
Also, when working with students, you can never be sure of the safety of your equipment, and even more so, you cannot exclude the fact that the equipment that you give to a student for the duration of the simulation cannot be deliberately or accidentally taken out of the simulation room and used in a real hospital.

You can read more about safety during clinical simulation here: https://healthcaresimulationsafety.org/ 
And here, you can read a clinical report on a case where a simulated drug was accidentally administered to real patients, resulting in sepsis: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1177/2324709615618980 

Taking into account the factor of safety, the factor of finance, availability and replaceability, I began to create models of medications and medical equipment that can be printed on a 3D printer and used as a prop during simulations.

I present to your attention an Glyceryl Trinitrate (GTN) Spray for clinical simulations. 
It is a cheap, fast and affordable method for simulating inhaled medications.

It should be kept in mind that this model is not suitable for high-quality training in the use of inhalation medications, because the model has no moving parts.
But this model proved to be excellent when conducting InSitu simulations (clinical simulations in a real clinical environment), where specialists do not need to be taught how to use an Sublingual spray, but only the fact of the presence of an GTN spray in the medical bag is important.

Suitable for advanced training courses for emergency teams, playing heart failure scenarios.

Printed and tested on scenarios at the Medical Education Technology Centre of Riga Stradiņš University (Latvia).
I will be glad to see the model in action, so if you use the model - share photos and comments.
Please consider support me by buying me a cup of hot chocolate :)
