The Epidural Simulator facilitates knowledge and skills acquisition for the performance of an ultrasound guided Epidural Block and Lumbar puncture. Can be used to learn ultrasound anatomy pattern recognition for spine and neuraxial procedures. Also supports lumbar puncture with simulated CSF (cerebrospinal fluid).
Facilitates learning of anatomy, identification of interspaces and placement of the needle in the epidural space with loss of resistance technique or ultrasound. Full size anatomical structures have an easy to carry footprint. Allows injection practice and needle-eye coordination to safely guide needle insertion. Includes camera and display for visualization of needle/catheter placement. Includes replaceable (fluid filled) intrathecal space for multiple injections and CSF removal.
Supported Blocks: Epidural, Erector Spinae, Intrathecal, Retro Laminar.
Internal Anatomy: L2-L5; Sacrum; Epidural space; Spinal processes; Laminae; Articulate joints; Intervertebral space; Dura and Ligamentum Flavum; Subarachnoid space (intrathecal space).
External Landmark(s): Spinous processes; Posterior superior iliac crest
Optional/Replacement Component: MS3I-EPI Insert
