A full range to train you in various acts Our range of NASO-Train simulators has been developed in close collaboration with practitioners, based on the anatomical landmarks used in practice access to the nasal route. We currently offer two types of standard templates (you also have the option of requesting custom templates from your specifications or patient data): A simulator to practice nose and throat swabbing, developed in partnership with the university hospitals of Paris Rhinopharyngeal (or nasopharyngeal) swabbing, if done improperly, can result in microinjuries and lead to falsified test results. This is why training in this medical procedure is essential. A simulator to train for endonasal trans-sphenoidal endoscopic surgery and pituitary adenoma resection. This surgery in a narrow area requires the acquisition of a very precise gesture. As this type of pathology remains rare, this simulator becomes a necessary tool for the training of specialist learners. 3D printing multi-material enables the reproduction of complex regions of the body while respecting its mechanical and anatomical properties. You will thus find the following: Nasal cavities(including cones) Nasopharynx Soft palace Facial skin Mucous membranes We propose a model for nasopharyngeal swabbing representing the essential elements to learn the gesture. You will be able to practice the insertion of a swab for nasopharyngeal swabbing. For the Transsphenoidal Surgery simulator, NASO-Train consists of a cartridge that fits into a reusable simulation environment.
