Ankle Block Simulator

Description

MiniSim Ankle Simulator facilitates knowledge and skills acquisition to perform Ankle Block, allows injection practice, and teaches ultrasound Ankle anatomy recognition and needle-eye coordination to safely guide needle insertion.

The simulator includes a rotatable stand that allows the simulator to be orientated and locked into the desired position for each ankle block.

Supported Blocks: Peroneal, Tibeal, Sural, Saphenous

External Landmarks: Tibia; Lateral malleolus; Medial malleolus; Side of the foot; Dorsus of the foot.

Internal Anatomy: Tibial nerve; Peroneal nerves (superficial and deep); Sural nerve; Saphenous nerve; Posterior and anterior tibial artery and vein; Tibia Fibula; Medial malleolus

Realistic Scanning

Cast from human anatomy, MiniSim includes realistic external landmarks and internal anatomy.  MiniSim vessels do not require filling, emptying, and cleaning that can create vessel contamination affecting visualization. Internal anatomically and proportionally correct structures closely mimic human anatomy scans.

Durable 

MiniSim Simulators tissue is self-healing and durable. The plastic base protects internal anatomy like bone structures. MiniSim simulators eliminate leaking vessels and the need to replace vessels by incorporating unique solid vessels (except vascular access models).  MiniSim Simulators offer fast and efficient setup. It’s as easy as opening the storage case, removing the MiniSim from its protective bag, and starting your scans. MiniSim’s procedure tray allows easy cleanup after injection practice.  Remove scanning gel to complete the cleaning process for next use.

Cost Effective

MiniSim’s design, durability, ease of set-up, use, and storage make it the most cost-effective regional block training simulator available.

Optional/Replacement Component: MS2I-ANK Rotational/Replacement Insert
