Description
A dry bone model shifts out of position easily if the holder isn’t stable, or if it can’t adjust to a specific alignment. Shane’s Leg holds the bone fixed in a structural frame while keeping the joint itself adjustable, so surgeons, registrars, and training centres can set up hip and knee positioning without the model moving mid-procedure.
A single-lever ball joint locking mechanism lets the trainee set and release joint position in one motion. An adjustable collateral ligament tension system reproduces the resistance of real joint mechanics. The device comes in Varus, Valgus, and Neutral models, covering different joint alignments.
Shane’s Leg is intended solely for training and simulation. It has no diagnostic or therapeutic function and is not intended for patient use. Clinical evaluation rests on equivalence to existing orthopaedic training models.
Storage
Store in a clean, dry environment within its packaging (460 mm x 350 mm x 150 mm) when not in use, away from direct moisture, to protect the metal structural components and polymer parts.
Handling
Handle the ball joint locking mechanism and the ligament tension adjusters with care to keep positioning accurate across sessions. Clean external surfaces after each training session, following standard equipment care practice. The device is for educational and training use only; it is not intended for patient contact.
