FazioTrain - Development of a sensor-supported medical training model for fasciotomies on the lower leg

As part of the FaszioTrain project, a realistic training environment for fasciotomies on the lower leg is being developed in collaboration with Phacon GmbH. To this end, various types of tissue are being produced using rapid prototyping methods and integrated into a model that replicates the physical properties, colours and textures of real anatomical structures. The model will consist of several anatomical structures that realistically reproduce the real anatomy of the lower leg, including the various compartments, nerves and vessels. To enable the realistic simulation of fasciotomy, the model will simulate the swelling of blood congestion in the tissue and the resulting pressure on the nerve tracts. Users should learn how to open the tissue properly, work their way to the release point and achieve the best possible relief.
