Discover this fantastic Equine Palpation Colic Simulator, a highly advanced piece of training equipment. It is perfect for veterinary medicine students as well as those studying animal management or equine care.
This simulator is guaranteed to transform veterinary medicine teaching sessions forever. Students will have the incredible opportunity to practice key skills using a realistic, life-size horse. They will learn how to perform these important skills carefully and correctly.
From palpating the uterus to performing an abdominocentesis, the simulator has so many amazing features. The material of the model is also very durable to ensure long-lasting usage.
Additionally, trainers can use the simulator to guide teaching sessions, covering important topics, such as the indications for certain procedures. For example, why and when an abdominocentesis would be necessary. This information is just as important as knowing how to correctly perform this skill.
For additional procedural practice, the removable head and neck allow students to refine techniques such as blood draws, catheter placement, and intramuscular injections. With accurate anatomical landmarks, learners can isolate and palpate the jugular veins, improving accuracy and confidence in vascular procedures.
Used on the VSI Adjustable Rolling Stand, it can be adjusted for height, rostral tilt, and 90-degree rotation.
