Description

What this equipment is and what it's designed for.

This 3D print shows the distal arm, partially flexed elbow, and proximal forearm, highlighting the muscles, major nerves, and brachial artery at the cubital fossa.
All fat, superficial veins, and cutaneous nerves have been removed for a clear view of the underlying structures.
Anterior View
The biceps muscle is prominent, with its flattened bicipital aponeurosis passing medially over the common flexor muscles and the tendon inserting into the radial tuberosity. Deep to the biceps, the brachialis is clearly visible. In the proximal forearm, the brachioradialis (partially reflected) and extensor carpi radialis longus are identifiable.
The classic arrangement of biceps tendon, brachial artery, and median nerve runs from lateral to medial, partially covered by the bicipital aponeurosis. The ulnar nerve passes behind the medial epicondyle into the cubital tunnel, while the radial nerve is visible between brachialis and brachioradialis.
Posterior View
The triceps tendon inserts into the olecranon, with the medial and lateral epicondyles clearly visible. The ulnar nerve is also seen passing behind the medial epicondyle before entering the cubital tunnel.
Cross-Section
In transverse view, the biceps lies anteriorly with the brachial artery, median nerve, and ulnar nerve medially. The three heads of triceps are visible posteriorly. In the forearm, the radius and ulna are clear, with the brachial artery medial to pronator teres and the median nerve deep to this muscle.

Knowledge

What you learn

Anatomical model modality. The competencies this equipment trains, in the language of the training plan.

Identify the muscles bounding the cubital fossa and their insertions.
Follow the brachial artery to its bifurcation.
Recognise the median and radial nerves as they cross the elbow.
Relate the anatomy to blood pressure measurement and to arterial puncture.

Knowledge

Cases and pathologies

The clinical scenarios that can be simulated with this equipment.

Brachial arterial puncture and its complications.
Median neuropathy at the elbow.
Supracondylar fracture with neurovascular injury.
Anaesthetic block at elbow level.

Features and what's included

What the equipment does and what comes in the box, as described by the manufacturer.

Features

3D printed replica made from radiological data or from a dissected cadaveric specimen, not a stylised model: this is real anatomy.
Developed and checked by the anatomists of the Human Anatomy Teaching Centre at Monash University.
Colourised to distinguish muscle, nerve, artery, vein and bone, and to separate territories or segments.
Not human tissue: no restrictions on transport, import or use in institutions without permission to work with cadavers.
Avoids the ethical and preservation problems that come with plastination.
Supplied with a detailed description of the anatomy represented in the specimen.

Services for this equipment

Services matter: the equipment gets commissioned, the staff know how to use it and maintenance is settled before you start. Include them in your budget and avoid having to raise a second purchase.
