Abstract

This article describes an inexpensive simulator developed for teaching intrauterine blood transfusion. The model is constructed from a boneless chicken thigh folded over a Penrose drain placed in a water-filled snap-lock lid container and covered by melted ballistic gel to simulate the fetal intrahepatic vessel. Participants valued this educational tool and reported feeling the model was practical and realistic. This low-cost, high-fidelity model provides realistic tissue resistance and represents a sonographically accurate intrahepatic fetal blood transfusion training tool.<br /> (Copyright © 2022 The Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada/La Société des obstétriciens et gynécologues du Canada.
