Ostomy Care Simulator
Designed to help introduce the essentials of ostomy care to patients and
students, this unit is ideal for demonstration and practice for several
procedures. The anatomy of both a colostomy and ileostomy are carefully
reproduced to provide lifelike functions and appearance. Dilation of the
stomas can be demonstrated and practiced, along with application of
postoperative and permanent ostomy bags. The colostomy can actually be
irrigated. Syringes are included to pump materials through the unit to
provide drainage and excretion at the ileostomy and colostomy.
The syringes are inserted
through ports in the back of the simulator. One pumps the ileostomy with clear
water, or water tinted for exact realism, and the other syringe pumps
synthetic stool to the colostomy. The consistency of the stool can be varied
by using water to thin the material, and most of the stool can be salvaged and
reused. A soft, pliable material is used for the stomas in order to achieve a
most realistic tactile sensation. Complete with a hard carrying case, teaching
guide, and supply of simulated stool. Three-year warranty. Size: 18" x
18" x 12".
