What's new on the Mediolateral Perineal Repair Trainer?

Using an innovative design, the perineum of the trainer has been changed from silicone to fabric. What does this mean when using it during simulation training?

• The new durable fabric construction increases the life span of the trainer
• Changes to the anal muscle mean there's no need for lubricant
• Revised anatomy allows for increased accuracy during procedures

As well as improved value for money with longer periods between ordering replacement parts, the new model means less waste and reduces time spent on set up.
