This adult male torso is designed for pericardiocentesis demonstration, training and assessment.
Skills Gained
- Anatomical familiarity
- Cardiac percussion
- Pericardiocentesis skills
The Anatomy Lab A‑112545 Pericardiocentesis Simulator provides a realistic adult male torso model designed for training and assessment of pericardial tamponade and pericardiocentesis procedures. Learners can palpate anatomical landmarks such as the sternum, clavicles, ribs and intercostal spaces; visualize simulated cardiac enlargement from pericardial effusion; and perform needle puncture into a simulated pericardial cavity with realistic fluid aspiration or “blood” aspirate when the needle is inserted too deeply.
