MM850 Big Clint Fat Neck Model

This model is no longer available. It will be replaced soon with a slightly larger model (Big Conan MM860) with more options and easier neck skins.

Big Clint is a truck driver from Hokatika. The other day he collapsed on his way home. Bystanders found out Clint has trouble breathing, suspected there was a blockage of the airway and called 911. Big Clint was raced to the hospital for emergency surgery to his neck.

This product includes:

Optional is a large neck tumour with Luer connector.

How to use this model:

• The skins can be cut through, afterward either repaired or replaced.

• The white trachea can be repaired with a separate repair kit or be replaced with a new Trachea MM843 or with a blue plastic trachea tube.

• After the training, all the neck skins and membranes can be repaired with the repair kit. See instructions on the repair kit. 

Reference:

I also wanted to give some feedback regarding this model. We use this to teach CICO rescue to the registrars for impalpable neck anatomy and it is great! I squirt liquid paraffin in the neck space as the registrars make the initial incision to simulate blood and the slipperiness that follows. Myself and a few other consultants who have done CICO rescue on sheep have found that this is a great model to teach and learn. We have had great feedback from the registrars who have used this model.

Kind regards,

My department purchase your difficult airway model “Big Clint” many years ago now and he has served us very well. He is used at least 4 times a year and the skins have also been reglued and reused several times over. I can attest to his durability as he has endured having his larynx pulled out, his trachea repaired and having his fat (from the fat jar) replaced. The only downside is we only have one. I notice he is being discontinued. Just wondering if the upgraded version Conan is available and if so how much? How much different is he from Clint?

• You can use talc powder to mattify shiny areas.
• The silicone can be washed with warm soapy water and disinfected with Iso Alcohol.
