Description

Key Features

  • Realistic Design: The trainer is a full-leg model that accurately represents the anatomy of a human leg. It provides realistic landmarks for students to practice palpation and proper placement of the splint's components.

  • Simulated Injury: The model's key feature is a realistic, simulated mid-shaft femoral fracture. The leg is designed to be shortened and rotated, mimicking the actual deformity of a fractured femur. This allows trainees to feel and see the injury as they work to correct it.

  • Traction Feedback: When a traction splint is properly applied and traction is pulled, the leg will lengthen back to its normal position, providing immediate visual and tactile feedback of a successful maneuver.

  • Versatile Compatibility: The trainer is designed to be used with a variety of popular traction splints, including Sager, Hare, and Kendrick splints, making it a versatile tool for different training programs.

  • Durable Construction: Built from high-quality, long-lasting materials, the trainer is designed to withstand repeated use in various training scenarios.


Uses

  • Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Training: This is an essential tool for training paramedics and EMTs in the pre-hospital management of femoral fractures. It allows them to practice a critical and often difficult skill in a safe, controlled environment.

  • First Responder Education: The trainer is used in first responder courses to teach students how to identify a femoral fracture and how to apply a traction splint to prevent further injury and reduce pain.

  • Skill Development and Competency Assessment: It provides a safe and effective way for trainees to develop the manual dexterity and critical thinking skills required for this procedure. Instructors can also use it to assess a student's competency in applying a traction splint correctly.
