This product is a replacement Lower - Abnormal module for the Limbs & Things Infant Hip Exam Trainer. This interchangeable section of the simulator allows for trainees to become familiar with the haptics of an abnormal infant hip. This module cannot be used without the Infant Hip Exam - Upper module (42011).
This simulator represents a 1-month-old term female and can simulate a normal, dislocated and dis-locatable or ‘lax’ hip joint, allowing for practice of Barlow and Ortolani manoeuvres as well as the Galeazzi sign. The baby has been designed with interchangeable normal and abnormal leg modules and one Upper torso, to allow trainees to identify the haptics of both a normal and abnormal hip, and helps meet the specific requirements of healthcare professionals training to identify and diagnose developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH).
As part of the accurate haptics of the product, the simulator features realistic ‘clunk’ that trainees can feel when resetting the dislocated hip. Built with versatility in mind, the simulator allows for repeated training of the Barlow and Ortolani manoeuvres, as well as the Galeazzi sign.
Product care is simple, and is Latex-Free.
