Comprehensive education: TURP, TURB, laser BPH Hands-on urologic surgery with highly realistic tactile feedback Use of original instruments eases transfer of skills to the OR TURP basic skills module The basic skills module covers all aspects of a complete TURP procedure: the trainee learns how to safely enter the urethra, do a proper visualization of the bladder, and identify important landmarks such as verumontanum and ureteral orifices. Crucial learning objectives of this module also include efficient coagulation of bleedings to avoid severe complications later on. TURP full procedure module This module contains eight different patient cases for full TURP procedures to acquire all skills necessary to safely perform a complete transurethral resection of the prostate. VirtaMed UroS™ comes with a Simbox platform, which can be mounted on a nice display cart with high-end PC and height-adjustable multi-touch screen. It can also be used as a mobile, stand-alone version at conferences or during training sessions. The Simbox gives realistic tactile feedback and uses original resectoscopes and instruments to ensure a complete simulation experience and facilitate manual skills training. The original scopes feature in- and outlet valves for fluid handling, different cameras (0, 12 and 30 degree optics) and different working elements for electro surgery or morcellation – just as in real life. Even the foot pedals for electrosurgical cutting or coagulation are included and function exactly like in the operating room.
