Key Features
Anatomically Specific to Females: The model accurately portrays the distinct characteristics of the female pelvis, such as a wider, more circular pelvic inlet, a broader pubic arch, and a larger pelvic outlet, all of which are crucial adaptations for gestation and parturition (childbirth).
Life-Size Scale: As a 1:1 scale model, it allows for a realistic appreciation of the size, shape, and spatial relationships of the pelvic bones.
Detailed Landmarks: Clearly shows important anatomical features including the iliac crest, pubic symphysis, sacroiliac joints, ischial spines, and sacral promontory.
Durable Construction: Made from a high-quality, resilient PVC plastic that is designed to be durable and withstand frequent use in an educational or clinical setting.
Display Stand: The model is typically supplied with a stand for stable and convenient display on a desk or shelf.
This model is a fundamental resource in many areas of study and practice:
Anatomy and Physiology: Used to teach the structure of the axial and appendicular skeleton.
Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Midwifery: An indispensable tool for medical students, residents, and nurses to study the mechanics of labor and delivery, understand pelvic measurements (pelvimetry), and visualize the baby's passage through the birth canal.
Physical Therapy: Helps students and practitioners understand pelvic biomechanics, posture, sacroiliac joint function, and various musculoskeletal conditions.
Chiropractic Medicine: Used to study the relationship between pelvic alignment and spinal health.
Childbirth Education: Employed by educators to visually explain the process of birth to expectant parents.
In summary, the Female Pelvic Skeleton model (SB50959) is a detailed and essential teaching aid for a wide range of medical and health science disciplines, with a particular focus on anatomy, obstetrics, and physical therapy.
