Erler-ZimmerSuture Leg

The Erler-Zimmer suture leg is a simulator for surgical sutures in leg form and rounds out the range of suture training models. A soft vinyl skin rests over a suturable foam, on which hundreds of suturing exercises can be performed. Wound closure can thus be trained under lifelike conditions.

This suture trainer is used in medical education, in skills labs and in surgical training. It supports students, junior doctors and instructors in practising suturing techniques on the leg.

• Simulator for surgical sutures in leg form
• Suturable foam with a soft vinyl skin for realistic work
• Three incision wounds that can be sutured several times
• Further wounds can be created by the user
• The suture material does not tear out when tightened
• Supplied with a basic set for surgical sutures

Because the three wounds can be sutured repeatedly and further wounds can be added, the model stays usable across many training sessions. The supple material withstands the pull when knotting, so the suture sits cleanly. To get started, a basic set for surgical sutures is included.
