Epidural Injection Simulator

Item# SB43103U

The EIS (Epidural Injection Simulator) is designed for learning, practicing, and experiencing the most common aspects of the epidural procedure - principally, simulating the feel of a needle passing through different tissue layers when performing an epidural. The simulator provides feedback to users on their technique and a method of rapid, accurate skill assessment. The realistic appearance and lifelike patient anatomy offers anatomical features such as vertebrae and iliac crests to provide tactile feedback during the epidural procedure. It also simulates loss of resistance using air or saline techniques with 16- and 18-gauge needles, including simulated injection of fluid and dural taps. The control unit features graphical interface with real-time visual feedback indicating the needle progression through each tissue layer; settings for realistic patient variance in tissue density and depth characteristics, including pregnancy and obesity and random scenarios; settings for simulating 16- and 18-gauge needles and air and saline techniques; and timer function. Includes the EIS simulation unit, control unit, data cable, power supply, custom EIS loss-of-resistance device, and operating manual.

Epidural Injection Simulator Profile Manager

Item# SB43104U

Enhance the Epidural Injection Simulator (SB43103U) and create custom learning scenarios to fit your education needs. The Epidural Injection Simulator (EIS) Profile Manager gives the operator the option to create custom patient scenarios, in addition to the preprogrammed patient settings of the EIS simulator. Any scenario that is created can be saved and repeated; additionally, real-time results are also available through your PC monitor. Features: graphical interface for easy profile modification, design of custom patient scenarios, storage and security of custom scenarios, real-time graphical feedback, and enhanced versatility for the EIS simulator.
