SIKO - The rabbit silicone ear

intravenous injections. It replaces the need for living animals.

Features:

• Hand-made replica out of silicone that corresponds to the natural rabbit ear in shape and size.
• Cast-in tubes simulate the blood vessels and behave close to reality with regards to resistance during needle injection and blood withdrawal.
• Blood flow is simulated and controlled manually using connected syringes.
• Injection holes can be refilled and repaired several times. 
• Suitable for medical students and nurses, practitioners in human and veterinary medicine, or research.
• Allows the trainee to gain confidence and precision for subsequent work with syringes on living animals.
