FNBS-10 - Regional Anesthesia Femoral Trainer with SmarTissue

Simulab's Regional Anesthesia Femoral Trainer with SmarTissue allows skills practice for femoral nerve blocks with ultrasound-compatible tissue. This trainer allows ultrasound practice with visualization of the most clinically relevant femoral anatomy and needle tip to ensure proper manipulation, placement, and proximity to the nerves. The trainer consists of a body form and replaceable tissue, each embedded with SmarTissue technology, allowing the system to connect with any PC to provide needle-to-nerve visuals and audio verification of proper technique.

Includes:

• SmarTissue Lower Body Form
• Regional Anesthesia Femoral Replaceable SmarTissue
• SmarTissue Software
• Universal Needle Adaptor
• Hand Pump
• Venous Pressure Regulator
• Simulated Venous and Arterial Blood
• Carrying Case

Note: Laptop not included

Features:

• Ultrasound is compatible for guidance during needle insertion.
• Anatomically correct lower torso with landmarks for placing femoral blocks.
• Distinct realistic “pop” is visualized and palpated when the needle passes through the fascia layers.
• SmarTissue software interprets unique signals, showing orange when in contact and red when penetrating the nerve.
