Description

0970/0975 Stan™ Stage 4 Pressure Injury Model features a large sacral Stage 4 pressure injury (per NPUAP 2016 Pressure Ulcer Staging Guidelines), with eschar, subcutaneous fat, undermining, tunneling, slough, eschar and exposed bone with osteomyelitis. This model also includes a Stage 3 pressure injury with subcutaneous fat and granulation tissue. The large size and depth of the Stage 4 pressure injury, as well as the undermining and tunneling, make it ideal for patient simulation. It’s also perfect for practicing the proper dressing and preparation of a large wound for use with a negative pressure wound therapy device. The Stage 3 pressure injury is positioned so that the Stage 4 can be dressed by itself or a “bridging” dressing can be applied to the Stage 4 and Stage 3 to demonstrate and practice this skill.

The unique flexible life-like material permits the placement and removal of dressings for use with negative pressure wound therapy devices without leaving an adhesive residue. It is also possible to demonstrate wound cleansing, classification and staging, as well as the measurement of wounds.

Great care has been taken to hand paint each wound just as it would be seen on a patient for the most life-like patient simulation. Wound assessment has become critical to the operation of health agencies, as inaccurate wound assessment can affect reimbursement, cause inaccurate reporting of patient outcomes and the appearance of potential adverse events. This VATA model makes it possible to visualize and understand the differences in wounds for optimal simulation. Once the different etiologies are understood, they can be discussed and treatment plans devised that will deliver optimized patient care.

The skills that healthcare professionals learn with this VATA model can be used to obtain positive outcomes with a variety of chronic and acute wound types. Ideal for practicing treatment on other pressure injuries, diabetic wounds, abdominal wounds, trauma wounds, flaps and grafts. Compact and weighting only 2 lbs., this VATA Inc. model is easily transportable.

A great tool for training, competency testing, skills assessment, dressing techniques and use of negative pressure wound therapy devices!

Optional carry case available 0971.

STAN STAGE 4 PRESSURE INJURY MODEL™ FAQs

HOW DO I REMOVE RESIDUAL ADHESIVE?

You can use any adhesive remover normally used on a patient to remove residual adhesive. If there is a large amount of residual adhesive on the model, you can soak a non-linting cloth and place it on the adhesive residue as the cloth will keep the adhesive remover in contact with the residue. You can periodically remove the cloth and wipe off as much of the adhesive residue that will come off. Repeat this process until all the adhesive residue has been removed and wipe with alcohol.

IS THIS MODEL LATEX FREE?

Yes.

WHAT IS INCLUDED WITH A ‘STAN’ STAGE 4 PRESSURE INJURY MODEL™?

This model features a large sacral Stage 4 pressure injury with eschar, subcutaneous fat, undermining, tunneling, slough, eschar and exposed bone with osteomyelitis and a Stage 3 pressure injury with subcutaneous fat and granulation tissue. The wounds are positioned so they can be individually dressed or a “bridging” dressing can be applied to cover both, demonstrating and allowing the practice of this skill with negative pressure wound therapy devices.

IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I SHOULD CONSIDER ORDERING FOR ‘STAN’ STAGE 4 PRESSURE INJURY MODEL™?

If you are going to be transporting the model, you may want to consider ordering 0971 Optional Carrying Case which is a durable, zippered, padded fabric case, with carrying handles.

HOW WOULD WE USE THIS MODEL?

Wound assessment has become critical as inaccurate wound assessment can misdirect the plan of care, affect reimbursement, cause inaccurate reporting of patient outcomes and the appearance of potential adverse events. This model is an effective tool for educating all healthcare professionals and patients in the identification and staging of wounds and their probable etiologies. ‘Stan’ Stage 4 Pressure Injury Model™ is also an excellent visual aid for educating those who cannot read well enough to understand basic healthcare information, allowing them to see what can occur without proper care. Routine measuring, cleansing and dressing changes can be taught and practiced on all the wounds by healthcare providers, patients, families and caregivers.

CAN ‘STAN’ STAGE 4 PRESSURE INJURY MODEL™ BE USED TO DEMONSTRATE THE USE OF NEGATIVE PRESSURE WOUND THERAPY?

Yes, there was a revision made to ‘Stan’ Stage 4 Pressure Injury Models™ that were shipped after May 2009 that improved the ability to get a good seal with negative pressure wound therapy dressings. The wounds are positioned so they can be individually dressed or a “bridging” dressing can be applied to cover both wounds, demonstrating the practice of this technique.

IS THIS MODEL AVAILABLE IN MULTIPLE SKIN TONES?

Yes, item #0970 is the product number for this model in a light skin tone. And item #0975 is the product number for this model in a dark skin tone.

WHAT DO I USE TO CLEAN THE MODEL?

You can use soap and water to clean the surface of the model. Alcohol can also be used, but should not be used on the “shiny” wound surfaces to help retain the realistic appearance of these wounds. Caution: Pen and ink can stain the model.
