Product details & mandatory information
The simulator for ultrasound-guided thoracentesis offers you the opportunity to train on two types of puncture units: the mid-scapular line and the mid-axillary approach. This simulator allows you to practice various aspects of thoracentesis, including patient positioning, locating anatomical landmarks by ultrasound, determining the degree and volume of pleural effusion, finding the puncture site, needle puncture and fluid aspiration.
Key features of this simulator include an excellent ultrasound image, palpable ribs, strap-on puncture sites for patient positioning and communication practice with the patient, a body torso for individual practice and two puncture units for the mid-scapular line and mid-axillary approach. In addition, the volume of the pleural effusion can be varied to simulate different levels of difficulty. You can also aspirate fluid and simulate the risk of complications. You can also check the direction of the stitch.
