Realistic simulation model to practice and train cricothyroidotomy procedure, created from real patient anatomies (from Computed Tomography).
CHARACTERISTICS
It has palpable anatomical structures of the larynx and trachea: hyoid bone, thyroid membrane, thyroid cartilage with its laryngeal incision, cricothyroid membrane and cricoid cartilage, as well as tracheal rings.
The base of the model has a removable skin tensioning and fastening system, as well as suction cups that allow better adherence to the surface.
The removable skin pad is made of layers of flexible material and high density foam that mimics the subcutaneous fatty tissue and has a length of 60 cm, which allows more than 30 procedures per piece.
Articulated larynx and trachea to be able to adjust the opening of the membrane.
Quick and easy to change spare parts.
Model developed and tested with specialists in the area.
The cricothyroid membrane corresponds to an interchangeable adhesive tape that simulates the texture and resistance of the real one.
