Our Rita enables the practical training of invasive injection skills in adult rhesus monkeys. The integrated hip joint enables the handling and fixation of the thigh to be simulated under practical conditions.
Blood withdrawals and injections at the femoral vein can be performed on the inside of the thigh in a lifelike manner. It is also possible to apply venous catheters to the skin-like venous module. The anatomical position of the femoral vein between the two muscle bellies is modeled realistically. In addition, the course of the saphenous vein on the lower leg is visualized in the compressed state.
With the solid holder, Rita is suitable for mobile use. The integrated suction cups offer optimal stability on smooth surfaces. The vein module can be removed if necessary and exchanged in a few simple steps.
