Life-form Non-Pitting Edema Trainer

The Life/form® Non-Pitting Edema Trainer has been designed to portray the non-pitting stage of edema, also known as brawny edema. Non-Pitting Edema is a very hard, fibrotic tissue that does not indent when pressed. The life-like simulated tissue feels rock-hard, making pitting impossible. As a comparison, the trainer includes a Stage 3+ (6mm) edema pad with deep pitting that remains for a short time when the tissue is pressed and released. 

Skills that can be practiced:

• Assessment of stages (3+ and non-pitting)
• Assessment of depth (6mm and no depth)
• Assessment of rebound time to baseline
• Feel of non-pitting stage

Includes two tissue pads representing a non-pitting stage and a pitting stage, an insert tray, a key card with cleaning/care instructions, and a storage box.
