The role of the thoracentesis and drainage model is to provide medical students, nurses and clinical doctors with a real and safe operation training platform, to master the puncture and drainage techniques of common clinical diseases such as pleural effusion and pneumothorax. This model is designed based on the real anatomical structure of the human thoracic cavity, featuring distinct layers of ribs, pleural cavity and skin. It can realistically reproduce the tactile sensation and resistance changes during puncture, allowing learners to repeatedly practice in a risk-free environment and become familiar with the operation steps and precautions.

By using the thoracic puncture and drainage model, trainees can intuitively understand the anatomical relationships of the thoracic cavity, master key skills such as puncture point positioning, control of needle insertion Angle and depth, and cultivate good aseptic operation awareness and emergency response capabilities. This model can also be combined with a simulated fluid outflow system to demonstrate the process of pleural effusion or gas discharge, enhancing the intuitiveness and practicality of learning. Overall, the thoracentesis and drainage model plays a significant role in clinical skills teaching, operation assessment and continuing education, which is conducive to improving the clinical operation level of medical staff and ensuring patient safety.
