Description
Key Features
Versatile Injection Training: This pad is designed to simulate multiple types of injections, including:
Intramuscular (IM): Injections into the muscle, which requires a deeper needle penetration.
Intradermal (ID): Injections into the dermal layer of the skin, used for tests like a TB test, and for which the pad comes with removable epidermis layers to create a "wheal."
Subcutaneous (SC): Injections into the fatty tissue just under the skin.
Z-track Injections: A specific intramuscular injection technique designed to prevent medication from leaking into the subcutaneous tissue.
Realistic Feel and Puncture Resistance: The pad's material is engineered to mimic the feel of human skin and tissue. It provides realistic puncture resistance, giving trainees the sensation of administering a real injection. The skin is also pliable and can be grasped, allowing for more authentic practice scenarios.
Fluid Compatibility: A significant feature of this pad is its "evacuable" or drainage system. It can be used with fluid-filled syringes, allowing trainees to practice injecting liquid without creating a mess.
Durable and Reusable: The pad is made from a resilient material that can be punctured repeatedly without showing visible needle holes, making it a durable and cost-effective solution for ongoing training.
Large Surface Area: The pad's large size (typically 6" x 6") provides ample space for repeated practice and for trainees to perform multiple types of injections on a single unit.
Available in Different Skin Tones: The pad is available in both light and dark skin tones to promote inclusive training.
Uses
Medical and Nursing Education: This pad is an essential tool for teaching students in nursing, medical, and other allied health programs the fundamental skills of safe and accurate injection administration.
Continuing Education: It is used by healthcare institutions to help staff maintain competency in injection techniques.
Skill Assessment: Instructors can use the pad to objectively assess a trainee's ability to perform various injection procedures correctly and confidently.
Self-Study: Its portable and durable design makes it suitable for individual practice and self-study, allowing trainees to hone their skills outside of a formal lab setting.
