Big Clint Fat Neck Model

Description

Full silicon practice model for Aneasthesy

Big Clint is a truck driver from Hokitika. The other day he collapsed on his way home. Bystanders found out Clint has trouble breathing, suspected there was a blockage of the airway, and called 911. Big Clint was raced to the hospital for emergency surgery on his neck.

This product includes:

Optional is a large neck tumor with a Luer connector.

How to use this model:

• The skins can be cut through, afterward either repaired or replaced.
• The white trachea can be repaired with a separate repair kit or be replaced with a new Trachea MM843 or with a blue plastic trachea tube.
• After the training, all the neck skins and membranes can be repaired with the repair kit. See instructions on the repair kit.

Reference:

I also wanted to give some feedback regarding this model. We use this to teach CICO rescue to the registrars for impalpable neck anatomy and it is great! I squirt liquid paraffin in the neck space as the registrars make the initial incision to simulate blood and the slipperiness that follows. I and a few other consultants who have done CICO rescue on sheep have found that this is a great model to teach and learn. We have had great feedback from the registrars who have used this model.

Kind regards,

Dr. Faith Crichton, Consultant Anaesthetist, Supervisor of Training
