Abstract
A pedagogical device for incisions and stitches for practicing different incision and stitching techniques in human or animal surgery includes a bar having an upper portion having a surface with a convex shape representing an anatomic element such as a bone, an upper maxillary or a mandible, and a sheet covering the bar, the sheet being made of a material having a texture simulating a biological tissue. The device can be directly used in the field of teaching surgery.
Claims23
A pedagogical device for incisions and sutures for practicing different incision and suture techniques performed in human or animal surgery, the device comprising:
- a bar presenting an upper part having a convex outer surface representing an anatomical element, said bar extending from a first to a second extremity along a direction, wherein a section of said bar perpendicular to said direction and along substantially a length of said bar from the first to the second extremity has an outer periphery on said convex outer surface that is a portion of a circle, a rectangle, a trapezoid or a triangle;
- a sheet removably attached to the bar covering said outer surface of the bar, said sheet being made in a material having a texture for simulating a biological tissue.
A pedagogical device for incisions and sutures for practicing different incision and suture techniques performed in human or animal surgery, the device comprising:
- a bar presenting an upper part having a convex outer surface representing an anatomical element;
- a sheet removably attached to the bar covering said outer surface of the bar, said sheet being made in a material having a texture for simulating a biological tissue, wherein the bar is a straight bar.
A pedagogical device for incisions and sutures for practicing different incision and suture techniques performed in human or animal surgery, the device comprising:
- a bar presenting an upper part having a convex outer surface representing an anatomical element and optionally having at least one cavity formed on the outer surface, said bar extending from a first to a second extremity along a direction, wherein a section of said bar perpendicular to said direction and along a length of said bar from the first to the second extremity and outside said optionally at least one cavity is substantially the same;
- a sheet removably attached to the bar covering said outer surface of the bar, said sheet being made in a material having a texture for simulating a biological tissue.
