Life/form® Pitting Edema Trainer
[SKU: LF00947]
The Life/form® Pitting Edema Trainer uses life-like simulated tissue to demonstrate Stages 1+ through 4+:
- Stage 1+ - Mild pitting, slight indentation (2mm), no perceptible swelling of area
- Stage 2+ - Moderate pitting, indentation (4mm) subsides rapidly
- Stage 3+ - Deep pitting, indentation (6mm) remains for a short time, area looks swollen
- Stage 4+ - Very deep pitting, indentation (8mm) lasts a long time, area is very swollen
Skills that can be practiced:
- Assessment of stages (1+ through 4+)
