Shoulder Injection Trainer - Ultrasound Guided (Light Skin Tone)
The latest Ultrasound Guided Shoulder Injection Trainer allows trainees to acquire the key skills of using Ultrasound guidance to locate, inject and aspirate the 4 most commonly treated shoulder sites.
The novel echolucent material has properties comparable to human tissue, giving clear visualisation throughout a procedure. This material is a bespoke formulation for Limbs & Things ultrasound trainer ranges. Thorough testing was performed with popular ultrasound machines. (Image quality may vary on different ultrasound machines.)
The Synovial Fluid used with this product now contains a new preservative which is approved for use by EU cosmetic regulations which means that it is safe for extended skin contact.
We still recommend the use of gloves, as the pigments may stain skin and clothes.
Overview
- Successful injection can be confirmed by visualising fluid entering the site or by aspirating fluid
- Watertight and durable for repeated use
- Echolucent material enables ultrasound imaging of the underlying landmarks
Realism
- Discrete muscle and skin layers for a realistic needle feel
- Echolucent material within the shoulder creates close to life ultrasound imaging
- Volume of fluid in the Subdeltoid/Subacromial Bursa can be adjusted, from no fluid present up to fluid-filled distension to give training at a variety of skill levels
- Nerve block functionality allows trainees to view and inject around the Suprascapular nerve
- Synovial fluid has realistic colouring
Versatility
- Injections from multiple approaches to allow for different preferences
- Shoulder skins have been vigorously tested for repeated use, ensuring a longer life span for the product
- Torso is compatible with both palpation guided and ultrasound guided Shoulder Injection modules
- Watertight design to ensure extended life of product
Cleaning
- Clean product with a damp cloth
- Allow product to dry thoroughly before storing

Can I perform a nerve block injection of this ultrasound guided shoulder injection simulator?
Yes, the ultrasound shoulder trainer is designed to allow trainees to view and inject around the suprascapular nerve to practice nerve blocks.
Does this ultrasound model allow trainees to practice procedures using fluids?
Yes. The Ultrasound Shoulder Injection Trainer was designed with watertight features, fluid can be injected or aspirated from the glenohumeral joint, subdeltoid bursa, acromioclavicular joint, and biceps tendon sheath.
