Overview

The Replaceable Tissue for the Arthrocentesis Model includes the patella, patella ligament, tibia, fibula, femur, synovial sac, and synovial fluid. Fluid can be easily added to the tissue for repeated use and synovial fluid can be removed from a joint cavity using either the medial or lateral approach and insertion sites include suprapatellar and parapatellar.

Details

Skill Development:

Use Medial and lateral approaches
Use suprapatellar and parapatellar insertion sites
Learn to milk the suprapatellar pouch
Palpating anatomic landmarks significant to the procedure

Features and Benefits:

Durable tissue is refillable and can be used repeatedly; it is also easily replaced
Anatomy includes: patella, patella ligament, tibia, fibula, femur, synovial sac, and synovial fluid
Medial and lateral approaches
Both suprapatellar and parapatellar insertion sites
Ability to milk the suprapatellar pouch
Ability to increase or decrease size of effusion with up to 60 cc of fluid
Palpable anatomy and realistic needle response
Realistic tactile feedback includes:
- sensation of bony contact if needle hits the patella
- sensation of bony contact if needle hits the femur
- inability to aspirate the syringe while the needle tip is in the soft tissue superficial to the join capsule
- easy aspiration of joint fluid into the syringe once entry has been achieved
