How Easy Is It to Practice Sutures and Stapling with This Trainer Set?

The arm and leg practice trainers are made using soft and pliable vinyl skin that allows for easy sewing. The skin is also tough so that stitches made will not pull out when tightened. Students can make around one hundred cuts, of which can be sutured several times before the trainer needs to be disposed of.

How Do I Clean This Suturing Kit?

To clean the training kit after use, you can wash the surface of the leg and arm units using a mild soap and warm water.

Care and Maintenance of the Suture Arm and Leg Simulation Set

• Do not use povidone-iodine prep solutions. These solutions will indelibly stain the trainers
• When not in continuous use, it is recommended that you store the simulators in their designated storage box, or cover with a cloth or sheet of plastic
