Universal Surgical Knot Tying Trainer

The "Universal" trainer is an indispensable tool for anyone looking to master surgical skills, from beginners to experienced surgeons aiming to refine their techniques. This multifunctional trainer allows for practicing various surgical techniques, including surgical knot tying, tissue dissection, suturing, and basic laparoscopic skills.

Key Features:

1. Skin Phantom with Subcutaneous Fat Layer:

   • Made of high-quality medical silicone, the phantom mimics the structure of skin and subcutaneous fat, providing realistic conditions for training.
   • Can be reused multiple times without losing its functional properties.

2. Platform with Attachment Points:

   • The platform is equipped with attachment points for two types of hooks:
     • "Open" hooks: used for securing rubber rings when practicing surgical knot tying techniques.
     • "Closed" hooks: used for training basic laparoscopic skills with laparoscopic manipulators.
   • Magnet with Hook: allows for practicing knot tying techniques in confined spaces with tension control; the magnet's detachment signals an incorrect maneuver.
   • Side Clamps: for securing the skin phantom during suturing or other simulators (hence the name "Universal").
   • Provides the ability to secure and work with trainers such as "Small Intestine," "Vascular Anastomoses," "Abdominal Wall," and other models.

Skills:

1. Surgical knot tying, including in confined spaces (deep within a wound).
2. Surgical knot tying with tension control:
   • Using the magnetic hook to train tension control techniques (the magnet's detachment indicates a mistake).
3. Suturing techniques:
   • Applying simple and complex sutures on various wound surfaces.
4. Tissue dissection techniques.
5. Laparoscopic skills:
   • Practicing basic laparoscopic skills using "closed" hooks for training with laparoscopic manipulators.

The "Universal" trainer offers extensive opportunities for learning and refining surgical skills, from basic techniques to specialized procedures. Its functionality, realism, and adaptability make it an ideal tool for medical education and professional surgeon training at all levels.
