Simulab's Regional Anesthesia Trainer with SmarTissue™ is the only nerve block training solution that provides instructors and users a feedback mechanism to gain procedural accuracy and enhance the training experience during Interscalene and supraclavicular nerve block skill development. This trainer allows ultrasound practice with visualization of the most clinically relevant brachial plexus anatomy and needle tip to ensure proper manipulation, placement, and proximity to the nerves.
Includes body form with Regional Anesthesia Replaceable SmarTissue, nerve stimulator electronics, and SmarTissue software (PC compatible*)
Ultrasound compatible for guidance during needle sticks and catheter placement
Anatomically correct human torso with landmarks for enhanced realism
Distinct “pop” is visualized and palpated when the needle enters into the neural sheath
SmarTissue software installed on a PC interprets unique signals, illuminating an amber circle if the needle is proximal to the nerve and a red dot if the needle is inserted into the nerve
Optional articulating head increases realism
Includes a simulated arterial pulse
Can be injected with simulated anesthesia, which is naturally expelled for repeated use.
Psychomotor skills associated with targeting the nerves of the brachial plexus for peripheral nerve block regional anesthesia
Needle insertion using Interscalene and/or Supraclavicular approaches
Ultrasound imaging skills
Transducer and needle manipulation and movement
Visualize needle tip positioning, proximity, and placement verification
