Vata Otto Ostomy Advanced Model With Case Features Otto Ostomy - a better understanding of Ostomies. From the Inside Out!0310 Otto Ostomy - The more healthcare providers understand ostomies, the better they will be able to educate and encourage their patients about this life-changing event. Proper teaching helps increase patients' understanding of their condition and the adjustments that may be necessary for achieving a satisfactory standard of life with their new stoma. That's why VATA, a leader in anatomical healthcare models, has created Otto Ostomy, the ultimate educational tool for nurses and patients. Pre-operative teaching allows patients and their families to begin learning about ostomies prior to surgery, at a time when they are less distracted, reducing anxiety. Seeing the 3D digestive and urinary tracts and visualizing the location and function of the various organs is essential to learning, especially in those cases where cognitive processes or language may be an obstacle. Modeled from an actual patient's CT scan, Otto Ostomy will help your patients and their families become more knowledgeable about what to expect, while demonstrating how ileostomies, colostomies, urostomies, and gastrostomy tubes function. Otto Ostomy has a clear torso shell with four openings for the insertion of stomas. The torso shell is easily removed from the aluminum base for teaching or to facilitate accessing and manipulating the organs. The color-coded organs displayed include: Stomach, Small Intestine, Large Intestine, Rectum, Kidneys, Ureters, and Bladder. The small intestine, large intestine, rectum and bladder are all removable to aid in teaching procedures where these organs might be removed. The ureters can be removed from the bladder and reinserted into the ileal conduit to show how a urostomy functions. The flexible small and large intestines can be separated and attached to the backside of the stoma in the torso shell to demonstrate either an end or a loop stoma. The large intestine can be separated at four different locations: the ascending colon, the transverse colon, the descending colon, and the Sigmoid colon. Using Otto Ostomy facilitates the rapid transfer of knowledge, increases confidence and outcomes of staff, patients, and their families with this life-changing condition, and can have a positive effect on getting the new ostomate off to a good start! Vata Otto Ostomy is supplied with 18 stomas, which include: Loop Without Rod Double Barrel Oval Mushroom Prolapsed 3" Diameter Granuloma Necrotic Ischemic In-Skin-Fold Parastomal Hernia Mucocutaneous Separation Recessed and Flush.
