Experience the Intensity of Real Orthopedic Surgery!
Perform amazingly realistic simulation surgery gaining practical experience with various open and closed fracture reduction methods. Get practical experience and insight into basic surgical principles. Suture the surgical wound in layers. Practice at home or wherever you are.
Lay a solid foundation for these surgical skills:
- Basic surgical principles
- Sterility and aseptic technique
- Good lighting
- Sharps safety
- Scalpel holds
- Incision
- Dissection and hemostasis
- Wound closure in layers
- Suturing and knot tying techniques
- Wound dressing
- Orthopedic principles
- Reduction, fixation and immobilization
- Casts, splints and slings
View this video of one of the multiple practical projects: “How to remove previously placed plates and screws.”
Ideal for both individuals as well as for group training: Students preparing for an Open Reduction and Internal Fixation Workshop
The Orthopedic Fracture Reduction Course’s Practical Projects:

Top 3 Reasons to Invest in the Fracture Reduction Simulation Kit
1
Because you can practice what you learn while you learn.
The medical profession is practical. You can read about how to ride a bike but you won’t be able to ride a bike until you start physically practicing. It’s the same with healthcare. Reading about how to deal with bone fractures has limited value if you don’t practice, make mistakes in a simulated setting, learn from that and correct yourself, and repeat until you’ve mastered the skills.
