Outline
The Virtual Reality Vaginal Exam Model makes it possible to see images of the actual movements
of the fingers inside the vagina when practicing vaginal examinations, something that has not
previously been possible. Instructors can now show trainees specifically how the two fingers
should be moved when performing an examination, and can check that the trainee is moving
their fingers properly.
Features
1. Sensors attached to the fingers make it possible to measurement and display distances between
the two fingers and the distance moved by the fingers.
2. A line connecting the ischial spines (zero station) can be displayed.
3. The material used for the model closely approximates that of real tissue. The cervix and other
structures can be checked under highly realistic conditions.
4. The images are three-dimensional and can be freely moved on the computer, enabling checking
from any direction.
5. Bishop scores from the late stage of pregnancy to the beginning of labor (cervical dilation,
effacement, consistency and position) can be confirmed.
6. Three models with varying degrees of uterus opening dilation are provided, along with models
of the fetal head. These can be interchanged and the degree of engagement can be adjusted,
making it possible to gauge the progression of labor by means of vaginal examination.
7. The fetal head models can be used to gauge rotation of the fetal head by varying positions of the
sagittal sutures and posterior fontanel.
8. Rotation of the fetus at the time of delivery can be checked by means of three-dimensional
animation.
