Request a demo
The robust sealed knee includes knee joint, patella, patellar tendon and the suprapatellar space.
Key anatomical landmarks are realistic to palpate, enabling injection and aspiration to be practised, and accuracy improved. Discrete muscle, skin and fat layers, provide realistic tissue and needle response.
Performing knee aspirations and injections are fundamental skills required for Core Medical Trainees, as well as Rheumatologists, Doctors practising General Medicine and Orthopaedic Surgeons*
The model was evaluated by Charles Wakeley (Bristol Royal Infirmary) and Andrew Grainger (Leeds Teaching Hospitals, UK).
