Knot Tying Trainer

Your proficiency in tying effective knots is a cornerstone in your training and surgical career, constantly being tested and assessed. For this reason, we've created an affordable platform to practice these skills in your own time.

The Wetlab Ltd Knot Tying Trainer is a comprehensive knot tying exercise board developed with medical students and trainees in mind to be the perfect tool to teach how to tie and secure knots with precision and efficiency. The trainer is lightweight and compact, making practise accessible at all times.

This versatile unit features an elastic chord section with resistance for developing fundamental knot tying skills and an area to simulate throwing knots at depth down a hole, complete with a magnetic hook that gives the user tactile feedback when too much pressure is applied.

The unit comes with suction cup feet that can be removed, a spacer disk that weakens magnetic force on the hook for a more challenging experience and 3mm polypropylene tying chord to get started straight away.

The Knot Tying Tainer is the perfect tool to practise your one-handed and two-handed surgical knots, instrument ties, slip knots, reef knots and more.

Features:

• Elastic chord with adjustable tension to replicate tissue strength and response.
• Cylindrical tube to simulate working at depth, transparent to allow easy assessment of your knot.
• Magnetic hook that detaches if too much upward force is exerted, allowing for instant tactile feedback, the user can adjust the strength and therefore difficulty.
• Unique silicone peg that tests the trainee to keep their knot from sliding.

For larger orders we can also offer personalisation and customisation. This includes your company logo and a range of elastic chord colours to match your branding. Get in contact with us to find out more!
