This VATA Suture Skills Trainer features an anatomically correct tissue pad that consists of 5 tissue layers for suturing practice. This Suture Skills Trainer is the ideal medical training tool for medical students, veterinary students, and dental students.

This VATA Suture Skills Trainer includes a life-like tissue pad, which is made up of 5 anatomically correct tissue layers:

• Epidermis
• Dermis
• Subcutaneous fat
• Fascia
• Muscle

With anatomically correct colour, strength, firmness and feel, each layer is easy to identify. This suture skills trainer allows medical students and professionals to practice superficial, subcuticular and complex deep wound suturing, with correct tension the suture will not "tear through" When making an incision or when suture tension is applied the VATA suturing training pad shows movement similar to real-life human tissue. Reuse the sire a number of times by removing the sutures in the suture practice skin.

The VATA Suture Skills Trainer comes with a proprietary tensioning device for use with the tissue pad, allowing the medical, veterinary and dental professionals and students to adjust the distance between the two cut tissue edges. This feature increases the challenge when closing the tissue under varying degrees of tension and offers the user a more realistic feel.
