Mastering minimally invasive access simulator
The MMIAS – Mastering Minimally Invasive Access Simulator is a professional training system designed for developing both basic and advanced skills required for minimally invasive surgical access techniques. It provides a realistic simulation environment for practicing instrument handling, hand-eye coordination, camera navigation, and spatial orientation in a safe and controlled setting outside the operating room.
The simulator is ideal for medical schools, universities, hospitals, surgical training centers, medical device companies, and individual home practice. By allowing unlimited repetition of essential surgical tasks, MMIAS helps users build confidence and improve technical proficiency before performing procedures on patients.
Complete Training System
The MMIAS consists of two integrated components that together create a comprehensive minimally invasive surgical training platform.
MMIAS Training Box
The training box has been designed to realistically simulate the layers encountered during minimally invasive access procedures.
Features include:
- Durable metal housing for long-term use
- Interchangeable access ports for different training scenarios
- Red insulating material simulating skin and muscle tissue
- Foam layers simulating subcutaneous fat
- Designed for repeated access training and instrument manipulation
- Stable and reusable construction suitable for everyday educational use
The realistic internal structure allows trainees to practice trocar insertion, access techniques, and precise instrument movements under conditions similar to those encountered in clinical practice.
Kennedy Camera
The simulator includes the Kennedy Camera, a dedicated HD USB endoscopic training camera developed specifically for laparoscopic and thoracoscopic skills training.
