Can this perineal repair trainer offer a real life training experience?
The Midline Perineal Repair model has been designed to give a close to life experience when used in training scenarios. Whether used as a stand alone trainer, with the PROMPT Flex range, or a simulated patient, you can tailor make exercises for your needs.
Why does the midline repair trainer now have a fabric perineum?
Feedback on the previous silicone perineal repair trainer was that it was too difficult for procedure novices and that for early years learners, durability was more important than fidelity. The new fabric perineal blocks offer greater durability and life span during training, this means a reduction in waste and increased value for money.
What type of tear does the Midline Perineal Repair simulator demonstrate?
Midline Perineal models show an example of a 2nd degree perineal tear. Although not specified, as smaller tears usually heal by themselves, you could also use this trainer to repair 1st degree perineal tears. For more severe tears, this range also includes a model representing a 4th degree OASI (obstetric anal sphincter injury).
