This Life/Form Suture Training Model is made with a soft vinyl skin over a core of stitchable foam to provide a lifelike suturing experience for students or a realistic suturing demonstration by an instructor.
The arm model has realistic skin texture with wrinkles, pores, and visible fingerprints. Soft and pliable for easy sewing, the skin is tough enough that sutures will not pull out when tightened.
The suture practice arm is provided with three "wounds." These "wounds" can be sutured repeatedly until the skin around them is finally worn out; then, new "wounds" can be cut. Although disposable, the arm provides hundreds of suturing experiences before wearing out. Conservatively, over one hundred cuts can be made on the trainer and each of these cuts can be sutured several times.
The Suture Training Arm comes complete with a starter package of sutures and instruction booklet.
