Advanced Catheterization Trainer Set (Light Skin Tone)
Urinary catheterization is a fundamental skill that is taught globally in many different disciplines. Limbs & Things have developed a range of simulators that cover urethral catheterization and suprapubic management across all levels of training.
The Advanced Catheterization Trainer Set contains two complete simulators, one male and one female. This allows for two true to life catheterizations be run simultaneously.
Augmented Reality is now part of the Catheterization range
The new ART Mats combine real world MRI and CT scan data, with the skills of talented medical artists and digital creators, to bring the internal anatomy of our trainers to life.
Within the L&T ART app’s digital environment, you can move around your task trainer and view various overlays, including: the musculature, organs and vessels, and skeletal structure. The interface allows you to move seamlessly between the layers, as well as view their cross sections.
Students are also able to view digital procedures in the AR environment to see how the procedure is done, and its impact on the patient’s anatomy.
What features are there on the latest catheterization models?
- Real time feedback can be given when using the modules outside of the base shell
- Updated urethra that offers a more realistic difficulty level when threading the catheter
- Improved female anatomy: softer labia to practice parting using aseptic no touch technique, and a less obvious meatus that allows for the incorrect placement during procedures
- Improved male anatomy: increased mobility of the penis for an enhanced experience when inserting the catheter, and retractable/removable foreskins
- Water delivery system offers a better user experience with easy set-up and improved connections for no leaks, allowing for better flow through the trainer
- Modular design allows for simulations run for beginners with visible internal landmarks, or real to life set up in complete model
Overview
- NEW: Augmented Reality capabilities with the ART Mat
- More robust design means longer lasting models, keeping on-going costs lower
- Ability to view catheter path when modules are used outside of the Pelvic Shell
- Improved Water System
- Softer, more realistic male/female anatomy
- Improved internal anatomy to allow for smoother insertion of catheter into the bladder
Realism
- Supple urethra & resistant sphincter providing realistic response
- Anatomically accurate bladder
- Flaccid penis with a removable foreskin for realistic male catheterization
- Increased mobility of the penis gives a more accurate representation of inserting the catheter
- Softer labia to practise parting using aseptic no touch technique
- Meatus is less obvious than previous simulator, allowing for truer to life experience when performing female catheterization
- Increased realism of anatomy, inclusion of a vaginal vault allows for potential insertion of catheter into the incorrect location
Versatility
- Modules are removeable and easily interchangeable
- Module comes with removeable foreskins
- Ability to view the path of the catheter during procedures
- Non-drip valve
- Reusable double-sleeve catheter packaging is supplied for teaching aseptic technique
- Syringe supplied with water-based lubricant to simulate proprietary local anaesthetic gel
Cleaning
- Drain all water from the product
- Remove all catheters from the trainer
- Clean product surface with soft, damp cloth and mild detergent
- Allow trainer to dry completely before storing
Safety
- Components of the trainer are latex free
- Foley Catheter supplied is made of silicone coated latex
- Use supplied Milton Antifungal agent to sterilize water
- Always deflate the balloon before removing a catheter
- Only use mock gel that’s supplied with the catheterization simulator
- Use lubricant when inserting the catheter
Simulated Patient
- Can be used with a standardised patient to help improve communication skills

Can any sized catheter be used with the catheterization simulators?
The Limbs & Things simulators have been optimised for use with a size 14 Foley Catheter, but they’re also compatible with size 12-18 catheters, however this may affect performance and life of the trainer
Is it possible to check the positioning of the catheter once it has been inserted?
Yes. All the catheterization modules have clear sided cases that hold the internal structure and bladder reservoir. During the procedure this is hidden from the trainees in the unit’s shell, removing the module will allow you to see if the catheter placement is correct and whether the balloon has fully inflated.
Can trainees practice ultrasound suprapubic catheter insertion on a male module?
Our Suprapubic Catheterization simulator is only available with female anatomy.
Limbs & Things gathered feedback from evaluators involved in the development stages of the suprapubic module. Their response was that the process is the same for both male and female patients when inserting a catheter in this region. The decision was made to only produce one version of this module, keeping the on-going running costs of the catheterization range down.
