Our IMSIT is a lifelike model of the
human lower torso. The simulator may
be used for teaching intramuscular
(intragluteal), and subcutaneous
injections as well as placement of a
femoral line. The posterior right side
of the simulator is hand-painted and
illustrates the deep ana tomic structure
of the head of the femur, the shaft of
the femur, the sciatic nerve, deep layers
of muscles, major blood vessels, and the
aspect of the bony pelvis underlying the
gluteus muscles. This simulator is a
“must" for all nursing programs.
