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 | Long Bone Drilling Simulator | Listed in ETALO Basic Simulator Matrix as alternative bone analog; not demonstrated in instructional videos. | ||
| Bamboo | 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 | Man-O-War Chest Tube Simulator | Plaster strips wrapped around cut plastic ribs; palpable through foam chest wall. | ||
| Pork Ribs | Multipurpose Thoracic Simulator (Carter) | Ex vivo porcine rib rack (4–5 rib segment); real bone tissue but smaller curvature than human ribs. | ||
| Chalk | 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) | |
| Modeling Clay | Long Bone Drilling Simulator | Play-dough listed in the ETALO Basic Simulator Matrix as an additional bone analog ("play-dough pipe"); not demonstrated in the instructional videos. In the demonstrated builds, clay or play-dough is instead the soft stabiliser holding the bamboo or PPR-pipe analog on a flat surface during drilling. | ||
| Styrene foam | Laparoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair Simulator (Kurashima) | One reusable piece of styrene foam forms the pubic bone together with Cooper's ligament. Being firmer than the surrounding sponge, it lets the trainee find both by feel when placing tacks.[3] |
