Pressure Injury – Suspected Deep Tissue

Description

The Pressure Injury – Suspected Deep Tissue Silicone Wound by TraumaSim is a high-fidelity, self-adhesive training aid designed to replicate a medically accurate suspected deep tissue pressure injury. Manufactured from durable, life-like silicone, this wound supports realistic clinical, nursing, aged care, wound care, and patient assessment simulation scenarios.

The suspected deep tissue presentation represents early underlying tissue damage with visible skin discolouration, supporting learner recognition of pressure injury risk, skin assessment, escalation, documentation, and preventative care. Tapered edges allow the wound to blend seamlessly onto a manikin or live role player, enhancing realism during training.

Pressure Injury Simulation for Clinical and Aged Care Training

This silicone wound is ideal for nursing education, aged care training, clinical simulation, patient assessment, and wound care scenarios. It allows learners to practise identifying suspected deep tissue pressure injury indicators and supports education around early recognition, monitoring, documentation, escalation, and appropriate care planning.

This wound is also available as part of the Clinical Pressure Injury Range, which includes multiple pressure injury stages for comprehensive wound assessment, classification, and clinical education. The full range supports progressive learning from early-stage tissue damage through to complex and unstageable pressure injuries.

Educators may also wish to explore TraumaSim’s wider clinical wound education options, including the Clinical Skin Tear Range and Clinical Ulcer Range, supporting broader training in wound identification, documentation, care planning, and patient management.

For larger-scale anatomical training, the Pressure Injury Buttock Overlay Training Model provides an enhanced option for pressure injury assessment, staging, prevention, and care planning scenarios.

To further enhance realism, the wound can be complemented with professional moulage materials and makeup products where appropriate for scenario development. Patient positioning, clothing, bedding, and clinical environment setup can be adapted to reflect pressure injury risk factors and improve scenario immersion.

All TraumaSim silicone wounds are self-adhesive, washable, and reusable, supporting repeated use in high-volume training environments. Available individually or as part of selected clinical wound kits.
