Sim*Tie Learning System - Complete Suture Tying Training Module - Includes Knot Tying Board, Instruments, Tying Suture, Simulated Tissue, Training Guide. Medical Education & Training Only.

The Sim*Tie Knot Tying Learning Module provides all of the equipment and supplies to train residents, students, nurses, and advanced practice providers in the techniques of tying two- and one-handed surgical knots. This learning system includes practice hooks and a system to provide resilience which will allow the learner to practice tying secure knots against tissue resistance. The four-inch cylinder is not attached to the board which challenges the learner to tie knots in difficult access conditions without moving the cylinder. Tying around clamps can be learned with the use of a novel tissue simulator and an included curved Crile clamp. Delicately placed ties (i.e. as in vascular surgery) are practiced on a "cup and hook" system. Homework assignments in the provided training guide offer distributive training opportunities in any comfortable and convenient environment. Anticipated time to complete the module is approximately 4 to 6 hours. OSATS assessment exercises are included in the training guide.
