Female Catheterization Trainer

Available in Light and Dark Skin tone

The Female Catheterization Trainer allows trainees to learn urinary catheterization techniques, as well as care of a pre-inserted suprapubic catheter via the pre-ported bung.

The feel of the catheter passing along the urethra into the bladder corresponds closely to real life.

Augmented Reality is now part of the Catheterization range

The new ART Mats combine real world MRI and CT scan data, with the skills of talented medical artists and digital creators, to bring the internal anatomy of our trainers to life.

Within the L&T ART app's digital environment, you can move around your task trainer and view various overlays, including: the musculature, organs and vessels, and skeletal structure.

The interface allows you to move seamlessly between the layers, as well as view their cross sections.

Students are also able to view digital procedures in the AR environment to see how the procedure is done, and its impact on the patient's anatomy.

Using expert feedback from customers and evaluators, Limbs & Things updated the Female Catheterization to include:

• Increased realism of the female anatomy
• A softer labia that allows for realistic parting using aseptic no touch technique
• A less prominent meatus to give trainees a more accurate simulation

Overview:

• NEW: Augmented Reality capabilities with the ART Mat
• More robust design means longer lasting models, keeping on-going costs lower
• Ability to view catheter path when modules are used outside of the Pelvic Shell
• Improved Water System
• Softer, more realistic female anatomy
• Improved internal anatomy to allow for smoother insertion of catheter into the bladder

Realism:

• Supple urethra & resistant sphincter providing realistic response
• Anatomically accurate bladder
• Softer labia to practise parting using aseptic no touch technique
• Meatus is less obvious than previous simulator, allowing for truer to life experience when performing female catheterization
• Increased realism of anatomy, inclusion of a vaginal vault allows for potential insertion of catheter into the incorrect location

Versatility:

• Modules are removeable and easily interchangeable
• Ability to view the path of the catheter during procedures
• Non-drip valve
• Reusable double-sleeve catheter packaging is supplied for teaching aseptic technique
• Syringe supplied with water-based lubricant to simulate proprietary local anaesthetic gel

Cleaning:

• Drain all water from the product
• Remove all catheters from the trainer
• Clean product surface with soft, damp cloth and mild detergent
• Allow trainer to dry completely before storing

Safety:

• Components of the trainer are latex free
• Foley Catheter supplied is made of silicone coated latex
• Use supplied Milton Antifungal agent to sterilize water
• Always deflate the balloon before removing a catheter
• Only use mock gel that's supplied with the catheterization simulator
• Use lubricant when inserting the catheter

Simulated Patient:

• Can be used with a standardised patient to help improve communication skills

Anatomy:

Female anatomy:

• Soft labia
• Subtle meatus
• Vaginal vault
• Pre-ported suprapubic catheter
• Pubic bone

Skills gained:

• Correct handling of female anatomy
• Aseptic catheterization technique
• Withdrawal of catheter
• Urinary catheterization
• Fluid management
• Suprapubic catheter management on female anatomy
