The Colles’ Fracture Reduction Trainer is an ideal training tool for learners looking to gain confidence in the reduction of Colles’ fractures occurring at the distal end of the radius.
The portrayal of a fractured distal fragment of the radius provides trainees with a platform for repeatable and consistent practice of manual Colles’ reduction (closed) and plastering techniques. As is typical in a real-life emergency setting, the model allows trainees to perform visual inspections and identification before facilitating a team focused Colles’ fracture reduction.
An adjustable tension mechanism allows trainers to alter the difficulty of the procedure for advanced learning.
SKILLS GAINED
Visual inspection & identification
Reduction of the fracture (closed reduction)
Plastering techniques
Adjustable tension allows for different difficulties to be simulated
Allows for teamwork and communication when reducing the fracture
OVERVIEW
Adjustable tension allows for progressive levels of difficulty
Trainees can perform all three stages of reduction: Exaggeration (to disimpact the fracture), Traction and Flexion
Accommodates a number of plastering techniques, including: back slab, circular cast, sugar-tong splint, and 3-point molds
Variable height stand allows users to adjust the height of the model for training ease
Replaceable hand and skin
REALISM
Realistic representation of a ‘dinner-fork’ deformity
Lifelike haptic feedback when carrying out the procedure
VERSATILITY
Trainer can be used in teams, or by individuals using the stand provided
Adjustable tension makes this trainer a perfect tool for OSCE courses
SAFETY
This product is latex free
Talcum powder can be applied to the baby head and episiotomy pad to prevent friction and avoid tearing
Wear gloves at all times and avoid wearing jewellery, sharp surfaces can cause damage to silicone and foam parts
Remove the episiotomy pad from the Stand component before packing away so that it isn’t under tension when stored
ANATOMY
Fractured distal fragment of radius
Head and body of the ulna
CONTAINS
Colles’ Fracture Arm (With skin included)
Adjustable Height Stand
Hex Keys (x2) – Large and Small
