Abstract
Intraosseous infusion (IO) remains an underutilized technique for obtaining vascular access in adults, despite its potentially life-saving benefits in trauma patients. In rural and remote areas, shortage of training equipment and human capacity (ie, simulators) are the main contributors to the shortage of local training courses aiming at the development and maintenance of IO skills. Specifically, current training equipment options available for trainees include commercially available simulators, which are often expensive, or animal tissues, which lack human anatomical features that are necessary for optimal learning and pose logistical and ethical issues related to practice on live animals. Three-dimensional (3D) printing provides the means to create cost-effective, anatomically correct simulators for practicing IO where existing simulators may be difficult to access, especially in remote areas. This technical report aims to describe the development of maxSIMIO, a 3D-printed adult proximal tibia IO simulator, and present feedback on the design features from a clinical co-design team consisting of 18 end-point users.
