Syndaver Animae

Animae is the first animated model from our award-winning SynDaver™ Synthetic Human (SSH) product line. The model includes standard SSH funtionality, as well as the ability to control motion of the arms, legs, head and jaw using a separate control panel.

SynDaver™ Animae includes skin with fat and fascia planes, every bone, muscle, tendon, and ligament in the body, fully articulating joints, a functioning respiratory system including trachea, lungs, and diaphragm, a complete digestive tract from the esophagus to rectum, the urinary tract (kidneys, bladder, and urethra), visceral organs (liver, gall bladder, pancreas, spleen), reproductive organs, a circulatory system with heart and coronary arteries, aorta, vena cava, and the primary arterial and venous trunks leading to the extremities.

The SSH product line represents the pinnacle of hands-on surgical simulation, and is made like a 3D jigsaw puzzle: Every muscle, bone, organ, and vascular component is individually removable and replaceable.

The model pumps heated synthetic blood (pulsed flow away from the heart and drainage toward the heart), is capable of insufflation, and can be intubated and ventilated. Individual tissues of construction have been validated by SynDaver™ Labs over the last decade to mimic the mechanical and physico-chemical properties of the relevant living tissue.

Additional soft tissues included but not shown include full-body fascia, subcutaneous fat, and skin. ALL muscles, bones, organs, and vascular components are separately removable and replaceable to allow onsite servicing and upgrades.

The model may be covered with either the standard SynDaver™ synthetic human (pure wet chemistry) skin or our new organosilicate-synthetic human hybrid (polymer outer - wet inner) skin.

User Controls: Control panel movement of arms, legs, head, and jaw. Blood flow and respiration control through separate control panels.

System Components: Animated full body with skin, storage and transport containers, stainless-steel procedure table, deluxe battery-powered heart pump, battery-powered combat ventilator, and all required accessories for life support and motion.

Tested Procedures: Coronary stent placement (through the thigh and wrist) with fluoroscopy, chest tube placement, tracheotomy, cricothyroidotomy, carotid endartarectomy, infusion port placement, central line placement with ultrasound, angioplasty, appendectomy, embolectomy, femoral cutdown with closure device, and hundreds of other procedures.

Imaging Equipment: Compatible with most known imaging equipment including CT, fluoroscopy, and ultrasound. Use with MRI equipment is not possible due to the presence of internal mechanical systems.

Surgical Equipment: Compatible with all know surgical devices including lasers, RF ablation, bipolar, monopolar, and harmonic devices.

Included Services: Onsite installation and training, one full year of anatomy, tissue, and hardware upgrades, and three-year warranty covering manufacturing defects. Annual service contracts covering every aspect of the system are also available.
