Overview
The standard Lumbar Puncture trainer is designed for use in undergraduate and early postgraduate medical training.
In training sessions, medical students will get a true to life experience, including:
A distinctive “pop” when puncturing the Dura (using the standard Dura) during a lumbar puncture procedure.
Measurable cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure, model can present realistic pressure between 5 to 25 cmH2O.
Realistic flow of fluid from the water reservoir, increasing the volume of water will increase the flow rate allowing for quicker training.
Palpable bony landmarks for identification of target vertebrae.
