Bone (osseous tissue) is a rigid connective structure that forms the skeletal framework of the body. It supports muscles, protects internal organs, and enables movement through joints.
Materials
| Material | Visual | Tactile | Simulator | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Animal Bone | Yes | Yes | Long Bone Drilling Simulator | Listed in ETALO Basic Simulator Matrix as alternative bone analog; not demonstrated in instructional videos. |
| Bamboo | Yes | Yes | Long Bone Drilling Simulator | Small-diameter stick (~12 mm); Variant A bone analog for basic bicortical drilling practice. |
| PPR Pipe | Long Bone Drilling Simulator | Variant B: small-diameter PPR (Polypropylene Random Copolymer) plumbing pipe held in play-dough stabiliser; bone analog for basic bicortical drilling practice. | ||
| PLA | Brannan Chest Tube Simulator, Chest Tube Simulator (Bettega), Humeral Fracture Fixation Simulator, Lower Limb Deformity Correction Simulator, Micallef, Pediatric Forearm Fracture Simulator, Tibial Shaft Transverse Fracture Simulator | Rigid 3D-printed thermoplastic bone analog providing hard cortical bone and rigid bony landmarks; used for drilling, external-fixation, and skeletal-framework practice. Can be printed hollow where consumable, single-use fragments are needed.[1] | ||
| Plaster Bandage | Partial | Partial | Man-O-War Chest Tube Simulator | Plaster strips wrapped around cut plastic ribs; palpable through foam chest wall. |
| Pork Ribs | Partial | Yes | Multipurpose Thoracic Simulator (Carter) | Ex vivo porcine rib rack (4–5 rib segment); real bone tissue but smaller curvature than human ribs. |
| Chalk | Partial | No | Ewald Percutaneous Renal Access Trainer | Chalk sticks 10 × 1.5 × 1.5 cm embedded between polyurethane foam layers to simulate ribs 10–12. Provides fluoroscopic opacity and mechanical interference for percutaneous renal access training (VAS 8.8/10).[2] |
| Plastic Pipe | Orthoplastic Reconstruction Simulator | Cortex analog: 3 cm diameter pipe segments (15–20 cm), packed with sand and vegetable oil for medulla, placed with 0.5 cm fracture gap between segments for external fixator placement training. | ||
| ABS | - | - | Cranial Burr Hole and Craniotomy Simulator (Bakhshi), Injection Laryngoplasty Simulator (Lee), Thoracoscopic Diaphragmatic Hernia Repair Simulator (Barsness) | Rigid 3D-printed thermoplastic used as a stiff scaffold providing rigid anatomical landmarks (e.g., skull, rib cage, or laryngeal framework). |
| Saw-bone spine model | - | - | Lumbar Laminectomy and Dural Closure Simulator (Bakhshi) |
