While clinical training manikins are a valuable resource, they have some limitations:

l Cost: High-fidelity manikins can be expensive, limiting their availability for some healthcare institutions.

l Maintenance: Manikins require regular maintenance and cleaning to ensure their proper functioning and hygiene.

l Lack of real-world experience: While manikins can simulate various medical scenarios, they cannot fully replicate the complexities and unpredictability of real-world patient care.

l Ethical considerations: Some educators may have ethical concerns about using manikins to simulate sensitive medical conditions or procedures.

Despite these limitations, clinical training manikins remain an important tool for healthcare education, providing a safe and controlled environment for students to practice essential clinical skills.
