Checks Out Fluoroscopy System
No Biohazards Which Are Associated With Cadavers
|
KIP has been designed to provide realistic functions, while
avoiding complications not essential to its use. Proper fluoroscopic needle
placement techniques can be taught or practiced without fear of biological
contamination hazards associated with fresh or frozen cadavers.
Fluoroscopically, the look and feel of the anatomical landmarks are
important and can be demonstrated with the use of KIP. |
Needle
placement for caudals, epidurals, selective nerve and root blocks, medial
branch blocks, facet injections and sympathetic blocks can all be
demonstrated. Practice RF needle-placement along with disc needle-placement
plus injection techniques for shoulder, hip and symphisis pubis, all in the
convenience and safety of your own particular laboratory or teaching
facility. There is now no need to deal with local, state, and federal
regulations regarding biohazards associated with cadavers.
You can keep KIP in the closet and take it out whenever needed.
KIP has been developed to help one learn and to hone skills for proper
needle placement for a variety of interventional techniques. It was not
practicable to design the phantom with a capability of demonstrating
realistic flow patterns associated with diagnostic dyes, so it is not
designed for actual injections. However, the all important fluoroscopic
guidance and needle-placement are realistic in KIP.

Further simplifications are elimination of skeletal
articulations that permit joint or spinal motions and the elimination of rib
numbers 2 to 9; the rigid flesh makes these superfluous. Positioning of KIP
as a single unit provides complete and realistic positioning capabilities.
KIP has the capability for injections not only in the spine, but also at one
shoulder, one hip, and at the pubis symphysis.
KIP has skeletal structures covered with a soft gel and a latex skin,
supported by a hard, synthetic material.
|
KIP has been tested to determine the probable effective life of injection
sites; a gel/skin section was used for a trial and six hundred injections
were made in a dime-sized area. There was no perceptible degradation of the
latex skin or of the gel itself. Considering the far greater area available
in KIP, it is unlikely that repairs or refurbishments will be needed for a
very long time.
The gel-filled injectable parts of KIP are completely encased in a latex
skin. Many latices are known allergens, but the latex skin of KIP is made of
the same material that is used in the RSD PIXY phantom. Hundreds of these
phantoms are in use, but no user has ever complained of allergic reactions.
The RSD technicians, who have worked for years with this latex, have also
never had such reactions. Allergic reactions are not expected to be a
concern for the vast majority of users. The materials and design processes
in KIP are made not only to simplify the overall process, but also to keep
it as realistic as possible.
