Prepare to enter the Emergency Room as a Medical Professional Student
The Apprentice Doctor® Emergency Room Simulation Pad is a unique type of simulation skin that offers students several realistic wound patterns like:
Straight-plain and straight-ragged, Wavy and Zig-zag, and V/Y-shaped lacerations – and the opportunity to design and create lacerations. These basic wound patterns cover about 95% of the type of wounds/lacerations confronting the average ER physician in the Emergency Room.
The Apprentice Doctor® ER-Sim-pad’s three-layered skin behaves a lot more like real human or animal skin – compared to the popular silicone skin pads supplied as part of most suturing kits currently on the market.
The Apprentice Doctor® Sim-skin Pad has double sided tape on the reverse side – stick your simulation skin pad on a smooth surface table or work bench.
