Port - Body In A Box

Port - Body In A Box

Brand: Adam Rouilly
SKU AV5010

Skills

  • Ideal for training, competency testing and skills assessment for port (IVAD) palpation and accessing
  • With this model, it is possible to simulate accessing the following port placements:
    • Deeply placed port
    • Tilting or tipping port
    • Wandering or shifting port
  • Successful access is confirmed by a “blood” return
  • Fluid can be infused and blood withdrawn, as the model has its own 35cc blood reservoir bag neatly tucked inside the tissue block
  • Accessing can be taught and practised within the case or removed for group use
  • The two round inserts, used to simulate the “wandering” and “tipping” port, are interchangeable to vary the experience
  • The skin flap has two thicknesses - the 6 mm side will approximate the feel when palpating a port at an average depth, while the 12 mm side will approximate the feel when palpating a deeply placed port
  • The underlying soft tissue block permits the port to “float” when palpating through the skin flap, for added realism

Features


  • Replaceable tissues which help provide each trainee a lifelike and unique surgical experience
  • Chest tube insertion
    • Recognition of correct position, surgical incision, blunt dissection through chest wall, perforation of pleura, and finger sweep
    • Anatomically accurate chest tube insertion in the 5th intercostal space
    • Realistic feel of all thoracic palpable landmarks
    • Cavity for introduction of optional liquids for simulation of haemothorax or pleural effusion.
    • Optional economy or premium chest tube inserts to demonstrate incision. The economy option consists of one solid layer and is a low cost solution for training e.g. for use in ATLS courses. The premium product has a three layered tissue representing skin, fat tissue and muscle for “real feel” surgical incision
  • Needle Decompression of tension pneumothorax:
    • Option to introduce air to create either right or left tension pneumothorax
    • Needle decompression replacement tissue sets located in 2nd intercostal space at mid clavicular line
    • Successful needle insertion will release air with the familiar “hiss” sound
    • Durable replacement tissue which will facilitate up to 30 needle incisions
  • Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR):
    • Realistic chest structure allows for easy identification of all anatomical landmarks
    • Full head tilt, chin lift and jaw thrust capabilities to allow the students to prepare the airway prior to resuscitation
    • Lifelike recoil during compressions
    • Successful ventilation will provide an accurate representation of chest rise and fall
  • Airway Management Skills:
    • Anatomically accurate oral and naso pharyngeal AirSim airway
    • Larynx piece with palpable rings for both surgical and needle Cricothyroidotomy and percutaneous tracheostomy.
    • Full use of supraglottic devices
    • Endo-tracheal tube insertion with direct laryngoscopy
    • Effective bag mask ventilation
    • Single lung isolation capabilities
    • Combi tube insertion
    • Naso gastric tube insertion techniques?
  • ??Identification of tracheal deviation and jugular vein distension which are warning signs attributed to tension pneumothorax:
    • ?Jugular vein distension can be observed on either the left or right side of the neck during tension pneumothorax
    • Tracheal deviation can be palpitated and clearly visible moving away from the side that has tension pneumothorax
    • Both features revert back to neutral upon successful needle decompression
