Skills and Features

Skills

  • Ideal for training, competency testing and skills assessment for port (IVAD) palpation and accessing
  • With this model, it is possible to simulate accessing the following port placements:
    • Deeply placed port
    • Tilting or tipping port
    • Wandering or shifting port
  • Successful access is confirmed by a “blood” return
  • Fluid can be infused and blood withdrawn, as the model has its own 35cc blood reservoir bag neatly tucked inside the tissue block
  • Accessing can be taught and practised within the case or removed for group use
  • The two round inserts, used to simulate the “wandering” and “tipping” port, are interchangeable to vary the experience
  • The skin flap has two thicknesses – the 6 mm side will approximate the feel when palpating a port at an average depth, while the 12 mm side will approximate the feel when palpating a deeply placed port
  • The underlying soft tissue block permits the port to “float” when palpating through the skin flap, for added realism

Features

  • The skin flap is made of a lifelike material – Dermalike™
  • Supplied with a real port with 9.5 FR catheter
  • Compact, lightweight, quick to set up and store
