Suture Skills Trainer, Light. Developed with the assistance of Dr. Michael Zenn, Director of the Human Tissue Lab at Duke University, the Suture Skills Trainer is the ultimate training tool for medical and nursing students. Compact, portable, and extremely life-like, this trainer provides an unmatched learning experience. Suture Skills Trainer consists of 5 anatomically correct tissue layers so students can perfect suturing with the most accurate model. Additionally, this trainer mimics the look and feel of live human tissue better than cadaveric tissue. Practical and cost effective, this model is complete with a compact carrying case and the highest quality surgical grade suturing instruments and sutures handpicked by surgeons. The Suture Skills Trainer is also built to last—it can be used again and again by simply removing sutures.

The realistic tissue pad consists of 5 anatomically correct tissue layers:

• Epidermis

• Dermis

• Subcutaneous fat

• Fascia

• Muscle

Each individual layer is identifiable and has anatomically correct color, strength, firmness, and feel. The unique materials used allow for practicing superficial, subcuticular and complex deep wound suturing and with proper tension, the suture will not “tear through”. Suture Skills Trainer’s tissue pad moves just like real human tissue when making an incision or when suture tension is applied. Sutures can be removed and you can reuse the site numerous times.

The trainer is also supplied with a proprietary tensioning device for use with the tissue pad, so the user can adjust the distance between the two cut tissue edges. This offers the user a more realistic feel and increases the challenge when closing the tissue under varying degrees of tension.

The instruments are of a much higher quality than those generally supplied with suture models. The Suture Skills Trainer comes with everything you need:
• Tissue Pad

• Needle driver

• Adson 1-2 forceps

• Hooked Littauer scissors

• Surgical safety scalpel for reduced risk of injury

• One dozen nylon sutures

• Disposable skin stapler and remover

• Custom carrying case is lightweight, compact and specially designed for each of the trainer’s components
