Venous Wound

The  Self-Adhesive Venous Wound represents a wound occurring from malfunctioning venous valves, causing venous hypertension which leads to venous insufficiency. This stretches the vein walls, allowing proteins in the blood and blood cells to leach into the subcutaneous tissues, resulting in the breakdown of the tissue due to lack of oxygen and nutrients. Venous ulcers will present with shallow, but large wounds, with irregular margins. This simulator allows an instructor, role player or student to wear the injury and provide the instructor the opportunity to demonstrate actual treatments. This simulation may also be used in conjunction with a table top skin (sold separately) as a classroom task trainer.
