- Add realism while practicing patient assessment skills, including observation of swelling of the foot
- Edema simulation can be practiced by pressing on the surface of the skin
- The foot uses lifelike simulated tissue pads to demonstrate Stages 1+ through 4+, as well as a non-pitting stage of edema known as brawny edema
- Pressing on the surface of the skin may leave an indentation that does not immediately rebound when pressure is released, or it may not indent under pressure, depending on which tissue pad is placed in the foot
- A Deep Tissue Injury is also present on the heel
- Includes a foot that easily attaches to any GERi or KERi Patient Care Manikin, 5 interchangeable pads representing 1 non-pitting stage and 4 pitting stages of edema, and an instruction key card
The Life/form® GERi™/KERi™ Optional Edema Foot with Deep Tissue Injury – Medium (LF04129) is a specialized training accessory designed to enhance wound care education and patient assessment skills. This lifelike foot attachment is compatible with GERi™ and KERi™ manikins, providing a realistic simulation of various edema stages and a deep tissue injury on the heel.
Key Features:
-
Interchangeable Edema Pads: Includes five simulated tissue pads representing one non-pitting stage (brawny edema) and four pitting stages (1+ to 4+ edema), allowing for comprehensive edema assessment training.
-
Deep Tissue Injury Simulation: Features a realistic deep tissue injury on the heel, aiding in the demonstration and management of pressure injuries.
-
Realistic Skin Response: Pressing on the surface may leave an indentation that does not immediately rebound, mimicking real-life tissue responses.
-
Easy Attachment: Designed for quick and secure attachment to any GERi™ or KERi™ manikin, facilitating seamless integration into training scenarios.
-
Instructional Support: Comes with an instruction key card to guide users in proper application and maintenance.
Ideal for nursing programs, clinical skills labs, and healthcare education institutions, this optional edema foot provides an invaluable tool for teaching students to identify and manage various stages of edema and pressure injuries.
