The system renders high-quality realistic images of tympanic membrane with all the cues and features required to train practical otoscopy skills
The simulator has a robust shock-proof body
Life-like exchangeable ear models with magnetic fixation fully mimic a real-life procedure: high-quality silicone form a realistically curved external auditory canal that occludes the view unless the auricle is pulled back
Both left and right ear otoscopy is supported with automatic model recognition and respective image mirroring
Thanks to backlight no additional light source is required
High tympanic membrane image resolution allows a trainee to use various viewing equipment: ear funnels, otoscopes, magnifying glasses, pneumatic Zigle funnels, operating microscopes, endoscopes and video-endoscopes
Animated imagery rendering for dynamic processes representation:
- liquid movement for exudative otitis media
- tympanic membrane movement during blowing out the auditory tubes
Supports automatic performance evaluation unlike other systems
Advanced database and simple administration system
Special evaluation and licensing modes provide a way to control knowledge and skill training progress
Embedded touchscreen and innovative haptic device allow to conduct both regular tests and practical skill-based exercises
The basic version includes more than 30 exercises for common ear pathologies:
- cute purulent otitis media
- chronic suppurative otitis media
- exudative otitis media
- adhesive otitis media
- tubo-otitis
- different kinds of otitis externa
