The intramuscular injection training model by Life/form is designed for training health care students in the administration of intramuscular injections. Three types of intramuscular injections can be taught and practiced on this simulator: dorsogluteal, ventrogluteal, and vastus lateralis injections.

Ideal for class demonstrations or practice by groups of 1 to 30, the Intramuscular Injection Simulator offers both visual and tactile learning. A simulated bony structure is embedded in the torso for palpation of the greater trochanter, the posterior superior and anterior superior iliac spines, and the sacrum, for easy location of the correct injection sites.

A section of the upper, outer quadrant of the left gluteal area is cut away to show the underlying structures including the gluteus medius and gluteus maximus muscles, sciatic nerve, and vascular structures.

As with all Life/form replicas and simulators, the Intramuscular Injection Simulator provides realistic skin and muscle textures, as well as bone shape and position, to closely resemble a live patient. As a result, perforation of the tissue with a needle duplicates the sensation of administering an actual injection.

The Life/form Intramuscular Injection Simulator includes a teaching guide, supply of syringes, and hard carrying case.
