Erler-Zimmer Osteoporosis Femur Model

For those training to work in medical fields, particularly those who will need to diagnose patients, it's important to understand what common conditions look like. The Erler-Zimmer Osteoporosis Femur Model is a great way to learn the visual differences between healthy and osteoporotic bones in order to effectively treat patients. Supplied with this unit is a removeable base for display purposes.

What Does This Osteoporosis Femur Model Demonstrate?

Mounted on a base, this Erler-Zimmer Osteoporosis Femur Model demonstrates one normal unaffected femur, and that of one with severe osteoporosis. The osteoporotic femur demonstrates a large amount of damage and a bone fracture as would be found in a real osteoporotic femur.

What Is Osteoporosis?

Osteoporosis is a health condition that weakens the bones over time, making them fragile and more likely to break. This condition develops over years and is often only diagnosed when a fall occurs and causes a bone to break.

Applications of the Osteoporosis Femur Model

Both a great patient and educational tool, this model is particularly suited for use in the following environments:

  • Medical schools
  • Universities
  • Hospitals
  • Doctor's offices
  • Rehabilitation centres
  • Laboratories

Supports Medical Training

The Osteoporosis Femur Model ideally can be used in medical training scenarios as a means for teaching how to correctly identify the effects of osteoporosis. The Osteoporosis Femur Model can be removed from its baseboard and completely disassembled.

Patient Education Tool

Not only for medical students, this model can also be used as an excellent patient tool, especially for older patients and menopausal women. The model makes an excellent visual aid when explaining to patients the damaging effects of osteoporosis, and how the condition can develop over time from a normal femur.

Removable Bone Fracture

Along with demonstrating bone damage, the osteoporotic femur on this model demonstrates a removable bone fracture. This bone can be de-attached and re-attached back simply via a magnet, ensuring no damage comes to the model.

For the of easiest use, this model has been constructed with a removable base. The base allows for an easy display of the model when not in use, or can be removed for students to gather a better observation of the effects of osteoporosis on the bones, and the differences of a normal femur.
