The Abdominal Palpation Model Set is a three-dimensional teaching aid for the practical training of Leopold maneuvers and abdominal palpation during pregnancy. It was specifically developed to realistically practice determining fetal position, presentation, and fundal height. The set includes a movable fetus with arms and legs, a firm buttocks, and a head with palpable anterior and posterior fontanelles. The flexible body of the fetus can be positioned in various positions and fetal presentations.
The fetus is embedded in a plastic basin and positioned in the abdominal region of the model. A padded fabric abdominal cover with Velcro closure allows for easy repositioning of the fetus and visualization when needed. To further simulate realistic examination conditions, movable gel pads are included to mimic amniotic fluid and enhance tactile sensitivity. A practical guide to the correct use of the model is also included.
This model set is suitable for medical training, particularly for midwives, gynecologists, and nurses. It is used to teach and practice the Leopold maneuvers and supports the structured assessment of fetal position during pregnancy. Furthermore, it can be used in childbirth preparation courses and for the clear and informative education of expectant parents.
This set allows for a realistic demonstration of fetal anatomy thanks to a flexibly positionable fetus with palpable fontanelles. The abdominal cover with Velcro fastening allows for easy handling and quick repositioning. Movable gel cushions simulate amniotic fluid and enhance tactile perception. The set includes a practical guide for use and a carrying case for safe transport.
To ensure a long service life, the model should be stored in a dry and cool place.
