Description

Key Features

  • Comprehensive Anatomy: The model is a life-sized replica of the shoulder joint, showing the upper arm bone (humerus), collarbone (clavicle), and shoulder blade (scapula). It also shows the muscles of the rotator cuff.

  • Detachable Muscles: A key feature is its five-part design, which includes four removable muscles of the rotator cuff. This allows for a detailed study of each muscle's role in the shoulder's movement.

  • Color-Coded Muscle Attachments: The model uses color-coding (red for origin, blue for insertion) to clearly show where the shoulder muscles attach, which is a great visual aid for learning.

  • Full Range of Motion: With the muscles detached, the model can demonstrate all the natural movements of the shoulder joint, such as lifting the arm out to the side or rotating it.

  • Durable and Mounted: Made from durable materials, the model comes on a stand, making it easy to display and use in educational and clinical settings.

  • Digital Integration: The A880 often includes access to the 3B Smart Anatomy app, which provides a virtual 3D model, quizzes, and other resources to enhance the learning experience.


Uses

  • Anatomy and Medical Education: This model is a primary tool in medical, physical therapy, and athletic training programs for teaching the complex anatomy of the shoulder.

  • Patient Education: Orthopedic surgeons, physical therapists, and chiropractors use the model to explain shoulder injuries (like a torn rotator cuff), conditions, and treatment plans to patients. The ability to remove the muscles makes it easy to point out specific problem areas.

  • Biomechanics and Kinesiology: The model's functional design is great for demonstrating how the shoulder moves and for teaching about proper form during exercise.

  • Clinical Demonstration: It is used in clinical settings to show the effects of different movements on the shoulder joint and to illustrate the rehabilitation process after an injury.
