Limbs & Things’ Abdominal Examination Trainer represents an anatomically accurate adult torso featuring abdomen, pelvis and lower part of thorax along with key bony landmarks.
Augmented Reality is now an integral part of Abdominal Examination training
The new ART Mats combine real world MRI and CT scan data, with the skills of talented medical artists and digital creators, to bring the internal anatomy of our trainers to life.
Within the L&T ART app’s digital environment, you can move around your task trainer and view various overlays, including: the musculature, organs and vessels, and skeletal structure. The interface allows you to move seamlessly between the layers, as well as view their cross sections.
Students are also able to view digital procedures in the AR environment to see how the procedure is done, and its impact on the patient’s anatomy.
The Abdominal Examination Trainer is ideal for OSCE preparation and assessment, as our torso model enables trainees to practise the required techniques of palpation, auscultation and percussion elements of abdominal, or gastrointestinal (GI) examination.
The trainer comes with interchangeable pathological organs and tissue masses, including a variety of livers, spleens, abdominal aortas and various masses, that can all be quickly inserted on to the abdominal organ locator. Gaseous distension and ascites can also be simulated, providing the correct feel during symptom-based simulation.
The Abdominal Examination Trainer is also equipped with a built-in MP3 and has a memory stick with 3 pre-recorded audio sounds which are played at various locations in the abdomen and heard during auscultation with a stethoscope.
