Claim One:
1. A physiological training and evaluation simulator suitable for training and testing personnel, comprising: (a) a simulated physiological structure; and (b) an evaluation circuit including a conductive elastomer, the conductive elastomer enhancing the realism of the simulated physiological structure, the conductive elastomer being configured as a portion of the simulated physiological structure, said evaluation circuit being configured to conduct an electrical signal from a chemical sensor disposed in the physiological training and evaluation simulator when the sensor detects a chemical in the physiological training and evaluation simulator; (c) a processor coupled to the evaluation circuit and configured to determine if a quantity of the chemical administered in a simulated procedure and detected by the chemical sensor is sufficient to trigger a simulated physiological response; and (d) a physiological control element configured to produce a simulated physiological response in the simulated physiological structure, the physiological control element being coupled to the evaluation circuit so that the processor uses the evaluation circuit to control the physiological control element based on input from the chemical sensor.
