Blue Phantom Midscapular Thoracentesis Ultrasound Training Model

Elevate Blue Phantom Midscapular Thoracentesis Ultrasound Training Model, realistically simulates thoracic anatomy, supporting ultrasound‑guided fluid aspiration, needle placement accuracy and hands‑on training for safe thoracentesis procedures.

  1. Midscapular Thoracentesis Ultrasound Training Model
  2. 1 bottle thoracentesis pleural replacement fluid (BRS-183, 235ml)
  3. Optional soft storage case (transport and storage)

  1. Will this work with our existing ultrasound equipment?
    Yes. The model is compatible with any ultrasound imaging system configured with appropriate thoracentesis transducers, so there’s no need for additional equipment or system adjustments to get started.
  2. 2. How durable is the model under repeated use?
    Blue Phantom’s patented self-healing tissue withstands repeated punctures using 18–21 gauge needles, significantly reducing replacement costs and making it a reliable long-term investment for high-volume training programs.
  3. What procedures and skills can learners practise?
    The model trains clinicians across the full procedural workflow — ultrasound control, transducer positioning, anatomical recognition, fluid pocket targeting, and safe needle placement — including avoidance of the spleen, diaphragm, and lung tissue.
  4. Is it suitable for different clinical specialties?
    Yes. The model supports training across emergency medicine, critical care, surgery, and pulmonology, making it a versatile addition to any simulation program that covers pleural effusion management.
  5. What warranty is included?
    The model comes with a one-year manufacturer’s warranty. To maintain coverage, it must be used exclusively with Blue Phantom ultrasound refill fluid and 18–21 gauge, sharp, unbent needles.
