Standard Catheterization Trainer Set (Light Skin Tone)
The Standard Catheterization Trainer Set contains both Male and Female modules for catheterization training. Interchangeable modules fit on the standard trainer base supplied, allowing for the practice of fundamental procedures, as well as more advanced skills of suprapubic management.
The clear sides of the male and female catheterization modules give the trainer the ability to visualise and monitor the procedure. Allowing real time feedback to be given to the students and assess the students' progress.
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.
Advances on this latest model include:
- Increased realism to male and female anatomy
- More realistic urethra enabling a life like feel and response to inserting the catheter
- Robust design that increases the longevity of the simulators and keeps on going costs down
- Modular design that allows for blind or monitored catheter insertion
- Practice of suprapubic management on the pre-positioned port of the female module
- New AR Technology to enhance learning
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
Anatomy
Male anatomy:
- Pubic bone
- Realistic meatus
- Flaccid penis
- Foreskins (removable)
Female anatomy:
- Soft labia
- Subtle meatus
- Vaginal vault
- Pre-ported suprapubic catheter
- Pubic bone
Skills Gained
- Correct handling of male and female anatomy
- Aseptic catheterization technique
- Withdrawal of catheter
- Urinary catheterization
- Fluid management
- Suprapubic catheter management on female anatomy
Use with ART today
- Gain increased understanding of internal anatomy
- Increase knowledge of procedures
- Understanding the anatomical differences in various pathologies
